IMPORTANT UPDATE ABOUT RECENT REPOSITORY CHANGES

We recently went through some breaking changes to the repository code base as outlined in the linked email. These have been coming for a long time as most of our development was focused on the 'next' branch (now renamed to master).

A lot of the 'next' functionality is ready to be used for testing purposes but we've yet to mark individual library APIs as 'stable' so no guarantees for backwards compatibility are yet in place.

Linux Network Stack Test is a tool that supports development and execution of automated and portable network tests. For detailed description of the architecture of LNST please refer to project website (link listed on Internet Resources bellow).

Installation and a simple Hello world example is available at Installation

Documentation is available in the docs/ directory, you can build it with make html using Sphinx.

The built documentation is also available online on https://lnst.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

The documentation is not fully complete so you may not find all of what you're looking for so feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions.

If you're interested in helping out we accept code contributions via Patches submitted to our mailing list [email protected].

Feel free to also report issues or submit pull requests.
