Quick question - I'm wanting to do some lab-based WAN simulation i.e.
have an ethernet link set up between two boxes that has wan-like
latencies on it. I was thinking I could maybe just insert a linux
router/forwarder into that link if I can find some means of
introducing forwarding delays there - anyone know of any way to do
that?
Linux has the netem traffic classifier. I use it all the
time for exactly this scenario.
See <http://linux-net.osdl.org/index.php/Netem>.
