Abstract

The paper proposes a validation method of a model of a real routing device. In the developed method assessment of the device model accuracy is made with the use of statistical inference method. The paper presents results of research on the adequacy of the router model operation in the Riverbed Modeler simulator in relation to the operation of the real router in a real computer network environment. The router model was validated for the behaviour of selected queuing mechanisms. The obtained research results indicate the need to adapt the router model in the Riverbed Modeler simulator in the field of tested mechanisms before the model will be used to carry out research on these mechanisms on a large scale.
