FireHOL is a language (and a program to run it) that builds secure, stateful firewalls from easy-to-understand, human-readable configurations. The configurations stay readable even for very complex setups. FireQOS is a program that sets up traffic shaping from an easy-to-understand and flexible configuration file. Both programs abstract away the differences between IPv4 and IPv6. so you can concentrate on the rules you want. You can apply rules for IPv4 or IPv6, or both, as you need.

A network tool to control the bandwidth over your local network, it can block internet access from any selected device, or limit its speed using packet redirection, in addition, it can log web activity for the targeted device using a built-in packet sniffer. Bandwidth limitation for better distribution of internet speed across devices, both upload and download speeds can be controlled for each device separately.

Testing distributed systems under hard failures like network partitions and instance termination is critical, but it's also important we test them under less catastrophic conditions because this is what they most often experience. Comcast is a tool designed to simulate common network problems like latency, bandwidth restrictions, and dropped/reordered/corrupted packets. It works by wrapping up some system tools in a portable(ish) way. On BSD-derived systems such as OSX, we use tools like...

OpenDMTP is a protocol/framework that allows communications with small devices (mobile phones, PDA's, and other high-latency/low-bandwidth devices), especially geared towards the transmission of GPS, temperature, and other remote monitoring information.
