In this paper, we describe a new hardware tool to test new Quality of Service proposals. Thus, we want to reduce the digital divide between Latin America development countries. The problem is that in our region it is difficult to build hardware prototypes for new networking protocols and methods. Our tool, named U2-Route, is based on a NetFPGA board, an open source hardware system developed in Stanford University. U2-Route has a routing core and a Web Interface that allows research groups belonging to Universities to test new developments. As an example, we show the methodology to design and to implement a Classifier and the results obtained.
