NAME 🖥️ inetsim 🖥️

INetSim is a suite for simulating common internet services

SYNOPSIS

inetsim [–config <configuration file>] [–version] [–data-dir <data directory>] [–log-dir <log directory>] [–report-dir <report directory>] [–bind-address <ip address>] [–max-childs <maximum child processes>] [–user <user name>] [–faketime-init-delta <initial time delta>] [–faketime-auto-delay <delay time>] [–faketime-auto-incr <stepwidth>] [–session <session name>] [–pidfile <pid file>]

DESCRIPTION

INetSim simulates common internet services like DNS, HTTP, SMTP or POP3.

OPTIONS

–config <configuration file>
The configuration file to use, default is /etc/inetsim/inetsim.conf.

–version
Output version information.

–data-dir <data directory>
The data directory to use, default is /var/lib/inetsim/.

–log-dir <log directory>
The log directory to use, default is /var/log/inetsim/.

–report-dir <report directory>
The report directory to use, default is /var/log/inetsim/report/.

–bind-address <IP address>
The IP address to bind services to.

–max-childs <maximum child processes>
The maximum number of child processes (number of parallel connections) for each service. Default is 10.

–user <username>
User to run services. Default is ‘inetsim’.

–faketime-init-delta <initial time delta>
Initial number of seconds (positive or negative) relative to current date/time for fake time used by all services. This overrides the option ‘faketime-init-delta’ in the configuration file. Default is 0 (use current date/time).

–faketime-auto-delay <delay time>
Number of seconds to wait before incrementing or decrementing fake time by amount of seconds specified with faketime-auto-incr. Setting to ‘0’ disables this option. This overrides the option ‘faketime-auto-delay’ in the configuration file. Default is 0 (disabled).

–faketime-auto-incr <stepwidth>
Number of seconds by which fake time is incremented or decremented at regular intervals specified by faketime_auto_delay. This option only takes effect if faketime-auto-delay is enabled (not set to ‘0’). This overrides the option ‘faketime-auto-incr’ in the configuration file. Default is 3600.

–session <session name>
Session name to use, default is the PID of the parent process.

–pidfile <pid file>
The pid file to use, default is /var/run/inetsim.pid.

EXAMPLES

Start the simulation with session name ‘simtest5’

# inetsim –session simtest5

Start the simulation with a one-day-jump to the future after 60 seconds

# inetsim –faketime-auto-delay 60 –faketime-auto-incr 86400

dito, but with jump to the past

# inetsim –faketime-auto-delay 60 –faketime-auto-incr -86400

REQUIRES

Perl 5, Net::Server, Net::DNS, IO::Socket, IPC::Shareable, Digest::SHA, nfqueue (optional)
