masterking32 / upload-traffic-generator

Simulates upload traffic for servers, particularly useful for Iranian data centers, using speedtest.net servers. Includes setup as a Linux service.

Network Upload Traffic Generator

This project is designed to generate simulated upload traffic for your server, based on your server's download activity. This is particularly useful for Iranian data centers, which require a 10x higher upload rate compared to the download rate to avoid bandwidth limitations. By using this project, you can circumvent this rule, as it creates simulated yet valid traffic using speedtest.net servers located within Iran.

❌ Please note: This project is currently in its beta stage and is intended for testing purposes only! ❌

4. Download the project:

git clone https://github.com/masterking32/upload-traffic-generator
cd upload-traffic-generator

6. Identify your network adapter name using the ifconfig command. Then, open main.py with an editor (like nano), find the NETWORK_ADAPTER line, and replace it with your network adapter name. For example: NETWORK_ADAPTER = "eth0".

7. Run Project:

python3 ./main.py

Running as a Linux Service

If you want to run this project as a service on Ubuntu, which will allow it to automatically start on boot and restart if it crashes, follow these steps:

1. Create a new service file:

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/upload-traffic-generator.service

2. Add the following content to the file, replacing /path/to/your/project with the actual path to your project:

[Unit]
Description=Upload Traffic Generator
Documentation=https://masterking32.com
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /path/to/your/project/main.py
Restart=always
User=root
Environment=PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
WorkingDirectory=/path/to/your/

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

3. Enable the service to start on boot:

sudo systemctl enable upload-traffic-generator

4. Start the service:

sudo systemctl start upload-traffic-generator

You can check the status of the service with:

sudo systemctl status upload-traffic-generator
