Hello Ugo

The truth is that emulators such as GNS3, EVE-NG, and CML are not very good at emulating Wi-Fi networks. They can get the infrastructure configuration part OK, with WLCs and APs, but user traffic is a different story. Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, these tools are insufficient for this purpose.

Doing a bit of research, I have found that some organizations are attempting to create such an emulator, however, this seems to be only at an academic level. There are no production products or emulators that can reliably emulate user traffic from dozens or hundreds of wireless clients.

I hope this has been helpful!
