Yesterday I was showing a coworker how easy it is to use a PC with
2 ethernet interfaces, freesbie and dummynet to do traffic shaping,
introduce delays, random packet drops and such.

I boot the PC and start configuring the dummynet pipes, but I get
an unclear message from ipfw: protocol not supported.

After a while I have an illumination and loaded the dummynet KLD!

My collegue was _very_ impressed :-)

Now to the suggestion: /boot/loader.conf should load dummynet,
so to allow people not familiar with fbsd kernel and modules
to use the wonderful dummynet system.
