Method for Network Traffic Generation based on User Behavior of Streaming Media

Existing traffic generation methods generate traffic by the flow generator structured and then sent data packets, which had two defects. Namely, the generated traffic is not enough authenticity, and the rate of flow is not high enough. For coping with the mentioned network traffic generation issues, based on user behavior of streaming media and streaming media server was presented. The test results show that comparing with DITG, the size of traffic produced by this method has been obviously improved, and its principle indicates that the flow is highly authentic. Rather than following the traditional thinking of sending packet by traffic generator itself, the proposed method provides an innovation scheme which decreases the difficulty of the realization of the traffic generator and has recommendable value for the researches and development of traffic generator.
