SoftPerfect Connection Emulator Description
SoftPerfect Connection Emulator has been created to offer developers a controlled environment for testing network applications. It can also be used by system administrators and network engineers.
Effortless installation process
The utility is easy to install on the system and the user does not have to pay too much attention to the process, which takes little time to complete.
An intuitive layout helps the user to learn the ropes quickly and with little effort. The main application window shows the network interfaces (WAN and IPv6 are included) that can be used with the application and provides a set of parameters that can be tweaked in order to emulate the desired connection type.
There are options for selecting a particular transfer rate, specific to a certain type of connection. A list of predefined profiles should make things easier.
Save customized settings into profiles
There is the option to enrich the list by adding connections with different speed limits. Further customization of the transfer rate includes the possibility to define the traffic direction.
The options for creating various network environments are extensive enough to touch on parameters such as latency and packet loss.
All the modifications can be stored a profile that can be loaded at any time. This way there is no need to make the same settings each time a certain configuration is needed.
Additional options available in the application refer to the possibility of bridging adapters in order to enable packet forwarding and turning on filters for simulating specific protocols, networks or addresses.
Versatile testing grounds for network applications
SoftPerfect Connection Emulator targets a specific segment of computer users, which is knowledgeable about network connections; however, it is easy to use and makes available a flexible testing environment.
