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). |
