All of the options mentioned are valid methods to model minimum or maximum flow restrictions in a network flow problem. Dummy nodes and arcs can be added to the network to enforce specific flow restrictions, and additional flow restrictions can directly be applied to affected arcs to ensure that the flow does not exceed or fall below certain limits.
