Simulation modeling of computer networks is an effective technique for evaluating the performance of network, transport, and application-level protocols. Traffic generation is one of the key challenges in modeling and simulating the Internet. In this paper we present a real simulation tool for controlled traffic generation over real networks. This work presents a platform, named Distributed Internet Traffic Generator (D-ITG), which allows to simulate Internet Traffic and accurately replicate appropriate stochastic processes for both IDT (Inter-Departure Time) PS (Packet Size) random variables over real IP networks. We believe that D-ITG shows interesting properties when compared to other traffic generators and that it permits to accurately analyze network performance.
