VIRTUAL TESTING OF NETWORK RESILIENCY
Abstract:
Technologies for testing resiliency of a data network with real-world accuracy without affecting the flow of production data through the network. A method according to the technologies may include receiving a production data packet and determining a preferred data route toward a destination node for the production data packet based on a first routing information base, wherein the first routing information base includes a database where routes and route metadata are stored according to a routing protocol. The method may also include, receiving a test data packet, and determining an alternate data route toward the destination node for the test data packet based on a second routing information base, wherein the second routing information base simulates an error in the preferred data route. The method may include sending the production data packet to the preferred data route and sending the test data packet to the alternate data route.
