    Hi,
    
         This may be a bit of a stupid question, but is there a piece of software
    that allows you to
    run a virtual network? Allowing you to add in routers, hosts, switches etc. and
    then test the affect
    of changes to that environment without actually have to affect the live
    environment.
    
    An example of a use for this would be if a specific router went down, who would
    it affect?
    Or, if a virus were to get onto the network (hopefully the AV would get it
    first), how would it spread?
    
    Any ideas??
    
    Regards
    --
