Fault profiles

Profiles define how ShakyLine changes traffic in each direction of a TCP session.

Directional profile

Use c2s fields for client-to-server behavior and s2c fields for server-to-client behavior. This is useful when uploads and downloads need different failure conditions.

Fields

c2s_latency_msuint32

Fixed client-to-server latency in milliseconds.

c2s_jitter_msuint32

Random client-to-server latency variance.

c2s_drop_ratefloat

Client-to-server drop probability from 0 to 1.

c2s_throttle_kbpsuint32

Client-to-server bandwidth limit in kbps.

c2s_stall_probfloat

Client-to-server stall probability from 0 to 1.

s2c_latency_msuint32

Fixed server-to-client latency in milliseconds.

s2c_jitter_msuint32

Random server-to-client latency variance.

s2c_drop_ratefloat

Server-to-client drop probability from 0 to 1.

s2c_throttle_kbpsuint32

s2c_stall_probfloat

Server-to-client stall probability from 0 to 1.

latency_msuint32

Convenience shorthand applied to both directions.
