Uhm, use virtual machine such as User Mode Linux or Qemu/KVM?

I'd recommend you to use virtual machines.

Please don't top post...

Since you talked about routing protocol, I think User Mode Linux would
do just fine. It runs completely in user space and can be easily
hooked with gdb.

I am currently using KVM.

Works very well for creating virtual networks, and testing iptable and 
marking of packets for different routing code tests.

I use KVM because it keeps all of the machines seperate, and of course, 
some of my machines are BSD.

So if you have different code bases you want to try your modifications 
with, KVM is a good choice IMHO.
