Hello, andryk Can you please explain what you meant.
I don't want to setup a physical LAN but a virtual LAN ie want a software that will run only on one pc and simulate a LAN environment (no phyasical connection to other PC
This is so as to enable me to experiment on Linux networking commands like ptables,work with host.access and hosts.deny files
Also I want to experiment on Java socket programming or java network programming(sorrry I did not mention it earlier).But the college's physical LAN is out of order and is hindering my experiments,studies and that is why I want a LAN simulator which will simulate a LAN on 1 single PC.
Please help me.

WIRELESS(7) Linux Programmer's Manual WIRELESS(7)
NAME
wireless - Wireless Tools and Wireless Extensions
SYNOPSIS
iwconfig
iwpriv -a
DESCRIPTION
The Wireless Extensions is an API allowing you manipulate Wireless LAN networking interfaces. It is composed of a variety of tools and
configuration files. It is documented in more detail in the Linux Wireless LAN Howto.
The Wireless Tools are used to change the configuration of wireless LAN networking interfaces on the fly, to get their current configura-
tion, to get statistics and diagnose them. They are described in their own man page, see below for references.
Wireless configuration is specific to each Linux distribution. This man page will contain in the future the configuration procedure for a
few common distributions. For the time being, check the file DISTRIBUTIONS.txt included with the Wireless Tools package.
DEBIAN 3.0
In Debian 3.0 (and later) you can configure wireless LAN networking devices using the network configuration tool ifupdown(8).
File : /etc/network/interfaces
Form : wireless-<function> <value>
wireless-essid Home
wireless-mode Ad-Hoc
See also :
/etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wireless-tools
/usr/share/doc/wireless-tools/README.Debian
SuSE 8.0
SuSE 8.0 (and later) has integrated wireless configuration in their network scripts.
Tool : Yast2
File : /etc/sysconfig/network/wireless
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-*
Form : WIRELESS_<function>=<value>
WIRELESS_ESSID="Home"
WIRELESS_MODE=Ad-Hoc
