Descriptions of open source networking software for Linux or BSD systems: configuration, operation, maintenance
NOTE updated February 26, 2013: This post contains old information. I created a page that lists all the open-source network simulators listed in the post below. I will keep the page up-to-date. Please see the List of Open-Source Network Simulators page. I am impressed with the number of network simulation tools available as open-source software. […]

A virtual network simulation solution will allow a researcher to emulate the the operation of a complex, heterogenous telecommunication network on a single host computer. It will have of the following functionality:
As a personal project, for my own edification, I will research and implement systems that will allow me and anyone who follows this blog to experiment with networking technology and learn new concepts. I will not have to invent anything new. I will use the resources already created by other people who have generously made
