I think there is an OpenWRT project floating around for network testing. That hardware can be had for less than $100.

There is also the RIPE Atlas project that is worth checking out. It looks like some MICE members have existing anchors.

Wouldn't that be like a $200+ client solution?  Seems relatively high is the issue or am I looking at it wrong.  I know that Vantage Point is pretty costly when your talking about 100+ or whatever the number is clients.

+1 on the NUC. The Raspi 3B+ USB ports and Ethernet port all share an USB 2.0 bus. So at most, you may see up to 300Mbps of throughput on the Raspi. I've tried iperf and speedtest-cli on the Raspi and never got over 200Mbps on a 1Gbps WAN connection.

Pi starting with model 3b+ can link at gigabit, but cannot do anywhere near that speed.

If the goal is something small, one would likely have to go with a real
x86 based thing, perhaps an intel NUC:
