On higher end systems (Intel E3 or E5 CPUs, 16+GB RAM, 10G Ethernet, etc) we can
do at least 50,000 concurrent TCP connections, and can emulate hundreds or 
thousands
of different machines (servers and/or clients).

We suggest 64-bit Fedora Linux version 17.  Probably newer versions would work, 
but our
automated install scripts might have trouble with newer releases.

For hardware, I suggest Intel NICs 1G, 10G, etc.  If you need high-speed 10G 
throughput,
then you need fast modern processors and 5GT/s pci-e busses and NICs.  That 
said, lesser
systems will work fine, they just might not give you quite as many concurrent 
connections.

If you decide you want to try LANforge, please install Fedora 17 Linux on it and
contact me off the list and I'll give you a trial license.  Please note that
LANforge is commercial software and is not open-source.  We do offer free 
licenses
to students using it on their own hardware and to non-profit charities.

I don't think it does, but I imagine if someone *does* know how to make iperf 
do this
they will post to the mailing list and tell you :)

Thanks,
