IP Spoofing and Adding Multiple IP Addresses To Host
IP Spoofing and Adding Multiple IP Addresses To Host IP Spoofing: When you run a scenario, the Vusers on each host machine use the host’s IP address. You can define multiple IP addresses on a host machine to emulate a real- life situation where users sit on different machines. About Multiple IP Addresses: Application servers and network devices use IP addresses to identify clients. The application server often caches information about clients coming from the same machine. Network routers try to cache source and destination information to optimize throughput. If many users have the same IP address, both the server and the routers try to optimize. Since Vusers on the same host machine have the same IP address, server and router optimizations do not reflect real- life situations. (real life Network Traffic) LoadRunner’s multiple IP address feature enables Vusers running on a single machine to be identified by many IP addresses. The server and router recognize the Vusers as...
