 It would be useful to gather some simulator parameters from the test lab.
 Most basic are tcp throughput tests (wget), and simple ping latency and
 loss statistics.

 More involved would be measurements of jitter and loss distributions.
 There's tons of random research tools to gather these more advanced stats:

 to be the BADABING tool from U-Wisc:
