\"How<\/strong><\/p>\n

RedLine13 integrates with AWS<\/a> to handle the spin up, management, and termination of your load generator servers without you ever having to worry about any of those details.\u00a0 We also support starting load generators from any AWS region<\/a>.\u00a0 This is useful for when you want to simulate traffic which originates from geographically diverse sources.\u00a0 In this brief post, we will show you how to run a multi-region test to achieve this. This is available in our paid and free plans.<\/p>\n

When you start a new test<\/a>, under the \u201cAdvanced Cloud Options<\/em>\u201d section you will find a \u201cLocation<\/em>\u201d option that allows you to set the AWS region for a number of servers. In the example below, we are starting with an m3.medium<\/strong><\/span> instance from the \u201cVirginia<\/em> (us-east-1<\/em>)\u201d region.\u00a0 We\u2019ll click on the \u201cAdd Load Agents<\/em>\u201d button to set up load generators in additional regions:<\/p>\n

Configuring the location of “Load Agents<\/em>” for a new test on RedLine13.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From the \u201cLocation\u201d drop down list, we can select any additional region to start more load generators from.\u00a0 Here is the complete list of all supported AWS regions:<\/p>\n

\"All<\/p>\n

When our test runs, in this particular example you can see that we have started load generators in several regions around the globe.\u00a0 This test generates traffic originating from the United States, Ireland, Germany, and Japan:<\/p>\n
