`pip install flent matplotlib`
`brew install fping`

Netperf in homebrew is installed without demo mode by default, so we need to edit the recipe slightly, also demo mode fails to build under OS/X, requiring a tiny patch to netlib.c ( http://www.netperf.org/pipermail/netperf-talk/2013-December/001162.html ). The following recipe changes the URL to a prepatched version that I host and changes the configure line to enable demo mode.

`brew edit netperf`

```
class Netperf < Formula
  desc "Benchmarks performance of many different types of networking"
