Today's networks support a great variety of services with different bandwidth and latency requirements. To maintain high user satisfaction and efficient resource utilization, providers employ traffic shaping. One such mechanism is the Hierarchical Token Bucket (HTB), allowing for two-level flow bitrate guarantees and aggregation. In this demo, we present HTBQueue- our OMNeT++ realization of the HTB, and show how the module can be used for mimicking 5G network slicing and analyzing its effect on network services.
