"""IXIA traffic generator model.

Provides a model for the IXIA traffic generator. In addition, provides
a number of generic "helper" functions that are used to do the "heavy
lifting".

This requires the following settings in your config file:

* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_LIB_PATH
    IXIA libraries path
* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_HOST
    IXIA chassis IP address
* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_CARD
    IXIA card
* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_PORT1
    IXIA Tx port
* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_PORT2
    IXIA Rx port

If any of these don't exist, the application will raise an exception
(EAFP).
