The paper presents a software tool for local network simulation. The tool includes GUI for constructing a network consisting of routers, application servers and switches connected to each other by communication lines. The simulator supports a number of widely-used protocols of TCP/IP stack. The network simulation tool also features a generator for errors and delays in communication lines that makes a data transmission process closer to real network environments. The error and delay generation algorithms are based on the Poisson distribution, that is proven to be adequate for wireless networks. The simulator is used for telecommunication system labs.
