Abstract
The paper aims to start a discussion about challenges and possible caveats of performing network security experiments with high traffic volumes in virtual environment. A new framework for rapid evolution of denial-of-service attacks by genetic algorithms is presented. Issues with virtual environment that were encountered during initial work with the framework are listed.
