	Honeyd is a small daemon that creates virtual hosts on a network. The hosts
	can be configured to run arbitrary services, and their personality can be
	adapted so that they appear to be running certain operating systems. Honeyd
	enables a single host to claim multiple addresses - I have tested up to
	65536 - on a LAN for network simulation. Honeyd improves cyber security by
	providing mechanisms for threat detection and assessment. It also deters
	adversaries by hiding real systems in the middle of virtual systems.
