NS3-SAT-SIM HYPATIA - TCP SYN ATTACK

[Abel López]

Hi,
I need some advice on the LEO satellite network simulator hypatia. It makes use of a module called ns3-sat-sim an ns-3 based framework which takes as input the state generated by satgenpy to perform packet-level simulations over LEO satellite networks. It makes use of the satellite ns-3 module to calculate satellite locations over time. It uses the basic-sim ns-3 module to make e.g., running end-to-end TCP flows easier, which makes use of several Python modules (e.g., numpy, statsmodels, exputil) as well as several other packages (e.g., OpenMPI, lcov, gnuplot). 

I am trying to use this network simulator and turn it into one that allows recreating a TCP SYN attack. I have created a new scenario a_c_b where the flow a-ISL-b is legitimate and the new flow I integrate c-ISL-b is the malicious one. The latter still doesn't work for me and the situation is getting very complicated. I don't know if anyone has implemented this attack in the Hypatia simulator but it would be very helpful to share my doubt in depth. The repository in question is https://github.com/snkas/hypatia/tree/master . Thanks in advance.
