The home page for netem is [http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/netem/]
It is designed to do similar work to dummynet for FreeBSD and shares some code with NISTNet.
This software is used within the WandGroup for simulating loss, delay and congestion.

+NetEm
relies on IpRoute to enable it's features.
To build it into the [Kernel] you need these symbols set at least:%%%

CONFIG_NET_SCH_NETEM

+NetEm needs a [LinuxKernel] with version 2.6.13 or later unless you run an earlier development [Kernel].
The way that seems to be best to use is to put the machine with netem on it between two other boxes as a router.
