This question is similar to previosuly asked question Start a Private Bitcoin Network but since I can't comment there I am asking again.
I am working on a concept specifically for existing bitcoin so the suggested methods of litecoin or regtest are not applicable for my purpose. I need to simulate a bitcoin network over my LAN/Wifi and it would be great if someone could point me towards a method to do it.
Why won't your own regtest work? – morsecoder – 2015-10-21T11:56:28.083
it can simulate only one node on a machine locally, right ? – bawejakunal – 2015-10-21T12:34:01.677

Actually, no, you can use multiple machines on a regtest network, you just have to manually connect them using

DNS seedingandFixed seedsare disabled inregtestmode, how can I simulate at least one of them so as to simulate a complete bitcoin network with peer discovery on my network ? – bawejakunal – 2015-10-22T04:46:27.383
