Simulate Network Faults
note
Make sure the NET_SCH_NETEM module is installed in the Linux kernel. If you are using CentOS, you can install the module through the kernel-modules-extra package. Most other Linux distributions have installed it already by default.
This section introduces how to create network fault experiments using command-line mode.
Before creating an experiment, you can run the following command to check the types of network faults supported by Chaosd:
The output is as follows:
Usage:
chaosd attack network [command]
Available Commands:

dns-server | Update the DNS server in /etc/resolv.conf with this value | string, such as “123.123.123.123” (default “123.123.123.123”) |
Example for simulating DNS fault using the service mode
Simulate network bandwidth using the service mode
Parameters for simulating network bandwidth
Parameter | Description | Value |
---|---|---|
action | Action of the experiment. | set to “bandwidth” |
buffer | The maximum amount of bytes that tokens can be available for instantaneously | int, such as 10000 , required |
device | The network interface to impact | string, such as “eth0”, required |
hostname | Only impact traffic to these hostnames. hostname and ip-address cannot be empty at the same time. when hostname and ip-address are set at the same time, the configuration item affects both the specified hostname and ip-address . | string, such as “chaos-mesh.org”. |
ip-address | Only impact egress traffic to these IP addresses. hostname and ip-address cannot be empty at the same time. When hostname and ip-address are set at the same time, the configuration item affects both the specified hostname and ip-address . | string, such as “123.123.123.123”. |
limit | The number of bytes that can be queued waiting for tokens to become available | int, such as 10000 , required |
minburst | Specifies the size of the peakrate bucket | int, such as 10000 |
peakrate | The maximum depletion rate of the bucket | int, such as 10000 |
rate | The speed knob, allows bps, kbps, mbps, gbps, tbps unit. The bps unit means bytes per second. | string, such as “1mbps”, required |
