Description
Hi, I am currently using Toxiproxy to simulate various network conditions for testing purposes. I would like to accurately simulate packet loss for an endpoint I am testing. I am looking for the recommended configuration settings to achieve a realistic simulation of packet loss.
Could you please provide the recommended configuration for simulating packet loss? Specifically, I am looking for guidance on:
- Setting a realistic percentage of packet loss (e.g., 10%, 20%, etc.).
- Any additional parameters or best practices to ensure accurate simulation.
- Example commands to add the toxic for packet loss.
Thank you!
