1 dummynet is a live network emulation tool, originally designed for testing
2 networking protocols, and since then used for a variety of applications
3 including bandwidth management. It simulates/enforces queue and bandwidth
4 limitations, delays, packet losses, and multipath effects. It also implements
5 various scheduling algorithms. dummynet can be used on the machine running the
6 user's application, or on external boxes acting as routers or bridges.
