patch

Making PointToPointChannel::Delay attribute a random variable is a very useful thing to have.  For instance, to emulate an "internet link", where the delay through the internet cloud is non-deterministic.

Comment 1 Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2009-02-06 11:31:35 UTC

I am abandoning this change.  PointToPoint is limited to L3 traffic, so I can't use it.  I tried similar approach in CsmaNetDevice, but it seems that increasing delay severely affects throughput, so I gave up for now.
