Common Open Research Emulator (CORE) is a tool for emulating networks (added support for LXD/LXC and Docker
CORE: https://github.com/coreemu/core 3 The Common Open Research Emulator (CORE) is a tool for emulating networks on one or more machines. You can connect these emulated networks to live networks. CORE consists of a GUI for drawing topologies of lightweight virtual machines, and Python modules for scripting network emulation.

Shadow Simlulator – run real applications over a simulated Internet topology
A quick look (by searching for bgp) suggests that this handles the upper layers, but doesn't try to simulate some of the deeper layers of a network such as bgp. Which something that emulators like core can do [0].
