All,

Hard to know who might find this useful, but people doing TCP experiments might 
find the following tool useful:

http://caia.swin.edu.au/tools/teacup

We built TEACUP (TCP Experiment Automation Controlled Using Python) to automate 
many aspects of running TCP performance experiments in our small, 
specially-constructed physical testbed. TEACUP enables repeatable testing of 
different TCP algorithms over a range of emulated network path conditions, 
bottleneck rate limits and bottleneck queuing disciplines.

A key caveat: TEACUP assumes your physical testbed is a 
multi-host/single-bottleneck dumbbell-like topology with suitably configured 
end hosts and Linux-based bottleneck router. TEACUP does not try to run 
experiments over arbitrary network paths or the wider Internet. This has 
satisfied our use-cases, but YMMV :-)

We've released TEACUP v0.9 publicly in case it may be useful to other 
researchers who already have (or are interested in setting up) similar network 
testbeds.

cheers,
gja
