Just an FYI. I have been using CBQ for my bandwidth limiting needs
at home for quite a while. Today I had a need to beef up the setup,
and now have some fairly complex rules that actually work.
If you want to have at them, they can be found on my website:
http://ranko.homelinux.net/technology.shtml
For example, what I can do now with it is if any of my roommates ever
use Kazaa or Gnutella, they can pump up the bandwidth usage as much
as they want but it will never go above 300k. Also, for web/ftp/ssh
usage it will try to each up as much free as it can but if there is a
game or audio streaming connection that needs some bandwidth it will
give them priority since it is more "realtime" intensive. For the
webserver since I don't use the machine much at night, it gives the
server more pipe at night and then in the morning automatically
lowers it back.
The hard part was figuring out a way to do the rules for what a
packet falls in. Since I was more familiar with iptables and it is
more flexible in its rules, I had it mark the packets into different
numbers. Each number I then tell cbq to be a different class.
Reason I'm posting the info here is I never did find any useful
advanced examples on the net.
