An emulator running at a fraction of the real device speed just can't communicate, leaving engineers to either forgo emulation or test their emulated devices using pattern generators that send and receive random packets at a very slow speed.
Patented software from Zeidman Technologies, called Molasses, is run on a personal computer that sits between the network and the emulated network device.
By buffering packets and translating them into a new protocol that the emulator can understand, at a speed the emulator can handle, the emulated device can communicate on a real network, transmitting and receiving real packets with other devices on the network.
