Abstract
This paper proposes a new methodology for easily constructing extensible and high-fidelity TCP/IP network simulators. The methodology uses a kernel-reentering technique to reuse the existing real-life network protocol stacks, real application programs that generate traffic, and real utility programs that configure, monitor, or gather network statistics to the maximum extent. Only an event scheduler and some modifications to the kernel are needed to "glue" these existing components to collectively simulate a network.
