If you have a spare box on a local network, switch that supports VLANs and a router that can tag VLANs - you can spoof the whole outside network with simple IP/VLAN configuration:
configure a gateway IP interface for the network you want to spoof on your router and tag it with testing VLAN ID - that will create a locally connected routing table entry - no creative manual entries needed configure testing VLAN ID on the switchport to which you will connect the testing box configure IP you want to spoof on the testing box That shouldn't take more than 5 minutes. Just make sure that you remove the spoofed gateway interface from the router after testing in order to be able to use the real network.
