Abstract: A remote proximity bridge service receives respective specifications that indicate a respective proximity communication protocol (e.g., Wi-Fi, serial port, etc.) to be used by devices of a client-specified network. The service may then select different test devices to be used for testing the client-specified network, such that the selected test devices are capable of using the proximity protocol. The test devices may also be configured based on the specifications. A test device may communicate with another test device using bridge devices. The test device transmits a signal to a first bridge device according to a proximity protocol. The first bridge device converts the signal into a network protocol message and transmits the message to a second bridge device. The second bridge device converts the message into a signal and transmits the signal to the other test device. Performance results of the test devices may be transmitted to a client network.
