The invention concerns a method for testing and predicting the behaviour of a computer network. Said method consists in; a) storing a representation of the network, including routers, and a use configuration of the network including traffic classes each associated with sources; b) on the basis of the initial conditions ( 400 ), iteratively applying an additive increase and multiplicative decrease model of the traffic evolution ( 410, 420 ), to simulate an evolution of rates in the network, storing each time a set of class or source rate variables; and c) if the iteration at step b) produces a periodical orbit ( 430 ), returning to a set of class or source rate variables already encountered, examining the series of routers encountered, as responsible for losses to evaluate the rate obtained by each class or source ( 450 ).
