ABSTRACT:
A method and system for emulating a network bandwidth condition includes maintaining a queue for holding packets that are received, maintaining a virtual time that is updated whenever a packet timer is scheduled, and, for a selected packet waiting in the queue, calculating a timer expiration time based on the virtual time. A bandwidth emulation module is controlled by an emulator link that comprises a virtual network link to which a first computer is connected. One or more computers may be linked to the first computer.
