I dont think there is enough information/specifics in the above. Why would you want to run a [network] routing emulator on your system? What do you want to achieve...

However, taking a flyer here, I'm guessing you want to test things on your system (specifically network) you can use netperf http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/netperf-1.7.1/
This can generate packes an flood the network interface (if you wish) or test the effective bandwidth between two HP-UX systems.

Or do you want to analyse the netweork activity (man nettl, netfmt, netstat, glance) or search the forums for them.

There are other toold to either "load" or "measure" system activity (e.g diskbench for the disks).

Hi all

Tim I think Megha wants to learn something about HP-UX and looking for simulator for that

Cisco simulators run in Windows and they emulates Cisco router's properties, commands etc.; they can generate simple networks in the software, and the student try to solve this problems

Best Regards

Hello Raju,
there is no simulator that I know of.
Every site should have a play pen box . Persuade your manger to get a small remarketed system like the 3410 with some spare hot plugabble disks. That way you can try different builds upgrades and connfigurations without having to disturb your developers .
good luck
Mike

Megha,

There is no such thing as an HP-UX emulator. There are some unix emulators out there, but if you really want to learn Unix in general, just download and install any of the Linux distros. If you really don't want to install Linux at all you can run a live distro like Knoppix which runs right of the CD. You can even practive with LVM under Linux.

If you must have something to learn HP-UX on, look on eBay there are a lot of entry level HP-UX workstations for under $500. If you are serious about learning HP-UX I would recommend you purchase a cheap workstation.
