It's based on UML, but does a lot of the uml-switched for you and as a result it is quite easy to use and the learning curve isn't steep at all. Currently, I'm using it to create networks to test a DSL based on Haskell that generated XORP config files from the give nsource code.<br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Yue Li <yueli.m@gmail.com><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Rae Harbird <r.harbird@cs.ucl.ac.uk><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cc:</span></b> xorp-users@xorp.org;

Hi<br><br>This was probably IMUNES. Since I last touched IMUNES, I believe it is being ported rewritten for the FreeBSD Network Stack Virtualization Project:<br><br><span> <a target="_blank" href="http://wiki.freebsd.org/Image">http://wiki.freebsd.org/Image</a></span><br>
<br>From the wiki: "The network stack virtualization project aims at extending the FreeBSD kernel to
maintain multiple independent instances of networking state"<br><br>I don't think it's ready for use in this incarnation yet and I'm not sure that the previous instantiation (imunes) is supported. <br><br>
I have cc'd Marco Zec, the principle developer, as this information may not be up-to-date.<br><br>Any other options?<br><br><br><br>Rae<br>===<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/6/30 Bruce Simpson <span dir="ltr"><<a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:bms@incunabulum.net" target="_blank" href="mailto:bms@incunabulum.net">bms@incunabulum.net</a>></span><div class="im">

Hi<br>
<br>
<br>
Does anyone have recommendations for emulating a small, simple network of XORP routers on a single Linux platform? I want to test my XORP code.<br>

There is something out there that might wrap XORP in some kind of virtualization environment, although I can't remember what the name of this thing is -- it was mentioned on this list in the last 12 months, a trawl through the list archives may help. Sorry, it's just a vague memory at the moment.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
BMS<br>
