[edlug] "Nasty" Loopback network interface

[Jarrod Lowe <jsljsl99@xxx.xxx.xxx>]

Hi,

I am playing around with some network code, and it would help me
immensly if I could have packets subjected to "nasty" network things
that can happen in real networks.

I vaguly remember something about a linux module that creates a
loopback network interface, but which would randomly delay and
reorder packets, drop packets, retransmit packets, and corrupt
packets. Has anybody heard of this, and know where it is? Or am I
smoking crack here?

Thanks,
