Adding Netowrk Latency

Postby bleonard » 15. Dec 2008, 21:52

It is possible to add network latency between the host and the guest? I know this may seem like a weird question, but it could prove useful during application testing.

Thanks,
Brian

I don't know. I don't recal reading it in the manual, but then again, I didn't read all of it ;). If it isn't, you can always add it to the OSE version if you're capable enough (and have enough spare time ;)).

may be you could run a tarpit aka teergrube in another virtual machine acting as router between guest and host?
