Opensource load generators

[PraveenBatta1]

Hi All,

Can you list any opensource load generators which I can use to send traffic to telco VNF/CNF's like pktgen for testing DPDK.

You can try the Open Traffic Generator examples which is open source and available to everyone. It's a great way to get started.

Also, many network vendors provide versions of their Network Operating Systems as a CNF or VNF.

Hope it helps.
