varnetload - tool to create reproducible network traffic

       Written by Phil Knirsch <pknirsch@redhat.com>.

varnetload is a simple python script to create reproducible sustained network traffic.

       In  order  to use it effectively, you need to have an HTTP server present in your local LAN where you can
       put files. Upload a large HTML (or any other kind of file) to the HTTP server. Use the -u option  of  the
       script to point to that URL. Play with the delay option to vary the load put on your network.

       delay  Sets  delay  between  individual downloads in milliseconds. Default value is 1000. But you my find
              values range from 0 to 500 more useful.

       time to run
              Sets total run time in seconds. Default value is 60.

       url    Sets downloaded resource. Default is http://myhost.mydomain/index.html.
