AnonTestLab
hashtagRR.github.io/AnonTestLab
A local network emulator for testing anonymous communication designs. Relays run as real processes with real handshakes, encryption and sockets, so latency, delivery and attack results are measured rather than modelled.
Quickstart
python3 -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install "anontestlab[dashboard]"
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hashtagRR/AnonTestLab/main/examples/tor_like.yaml
.venv/bin/atl run tor_like.yaml # run an example experiment
.venv/bin/atl dashboard # optional web UI
The other example configs are in examples/. Windows, installing from the source code, and troubleshooting: INSTALL.md.

Versions
Every release and its changes are in the changelog; each one is archived on Zenodo under the concept DOI above.
v0.5.0: rebuilt dashboard with PDF reports, and a fix to the model's predictions for cover traffic on split legs.v0.4.0(10.5281/zenodo.23211928): the version used for the experiments of a paper on correlation risk in multipath anonymous communication (under review).
AnonTestLab grew out of the test harness of Anon-Sec-Net, a dual-path anonymous communication prototype, and works for other designs too.
