[e2e] Netspec

[Sudeep Goyal]

Thanks a lot Prasad. I would definitely try the tool. This solves me a 
problem for VoIP and other stream traffic. But, I am not sure if elastic 
traffic (like ftp, http, mail or ERP) can be done using this. Can you 
kindly suggest some way?

Thanks and regards,
Sudeep
