Does anyone know of any FOSS tools that can assist in benchmarking ISC DNS and DHCP services? I would like to simulate X number of users attempting to pull an IP, resolve DNS names, etc. I would also like to test TCP connections into a CentOS server. We have some software that communicates with equipment via a TCP connection and I want to simulate thousands of TCP connections coming into one server.
Any suggestions are welcome.

For DNS try out Nominum's queryperf:

It will replay a BIND query log.
Maybe a tool as ns (Network SImulator) may assist you with this task, but it isn't specific for Centos but a general simulator for any network technology.
