Usage Sample Of Network Emulator for Windows Toolkit (NEWT)


Take a look discussion and blog.

When I want to simulate network outage to my other VM I use the following configuration:
2 virtual channels (blocking - VC1 with LINK_1, enabling rest of network - VC2 with LINK_2)

VC1:
 


LINK_1 - 100% loss


VM has 2 ip addresses - ipv4 and ipv6 so i need 2 filters:

FILTER_1:


FILTER_2:


Note: NEWT GUI has bugs with IPv6 addresses - it will show square braces in the beginning and in the end of address. Sometimes you have to remove them manually to save the filter or you may just edit xml file directly.


Second Virtual Channel (VC2) with LINK_2 with no loss:


Pay attention to network masks as they really matter!

the xml config is here.
