Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for simulating network performance. In one exemplary embodiment, the method includes inferring one or more services on the network; collecting network information based on actual traffic on the network; determining a traffic generator, such that the traffic generator represents the actual traffic on the network from a perspective of at least one of the inferred services; and simulating performance of the network using the determined traffic generator and at least one of the inferred services.
