I am getting the following problem. If someone can help.

I am using MoonGen in Vbox with one Ethernet card having two virtual VM networks.

Virtualbox has extremely bad networking support. Try using a VirtIO nic instead, it might be more compatible. However, performance will be so bad that it's virtually useless

[zahid1121]

It worked with VirtIO. Thanks Alot.

Hi, have you set up a virtual environment with vitio as NIC driver and you can use MoonGen ??
