A much much much easier way is to use a PC, load the dummynet image on a
floppy disk, then in about 5 minutes with the right configuration, you have
a simulated WAN, including bandwidth and delay.

Dummynet works on FreeBSD or, as we do, you can download the version that
fits on a floppy and boot from it. We use it to teach our application
developers the hard lesson that not everyone has 100Mbps link to the
servers, most sites have 64kbps.

Yes.  I was hoping to set up a demonstration on the impact of high
bandwidth*delay product networks without actually having a high
bandwidth*delay product network.  By artifically enforcing a small rcv
window, I should get about the same result.

Thanks Marc,
