 +==== In Practice ====
 +  - A device using WireRat inspects packets and creates inspect-user-packets.
 +  - A device using UBBT requests inspect-user-packets from the server to the WireRat via udp/6343.
 +  - A device using UBBT converts inspect-user-packets into support-bots.
 +  - A device running Bots made by botconf uses support-bots to create fake traffic to Producers.

-One Instance of WireRat can produce an unlimited number of inspect-user-packets based on the traffic flowing through it. This is based on a 1 to 1 ratio of 1 User Request to 1 inspect-user-packets. The only limiting factor is the amount of users running through the device and the amount of memory on the device. +One Instance of WireRat can produce an unlimited number of inspect-user-packets based on the traffic flowing through it.

The ratio is 1 Total Memory to 4 Inspect-User-Packets. IE 6 Total Memory = 24 Inspect-User-Packets.
  
 One Instance of UBBT can support up to a maximum of TWO bots. You will need additional instances in order to run more bots. One Instance of UBBT can support up to a maximum of TWO bots. You will need additional instances in order to run more bots.
