It can be used to prohibit P2P traffic (by dropping matches) or combined with connection tracking, CONNMARK and a packet scheduler for traffic shaping of P2P traffic. I did a lot of testing and also got much positive feedback of users. So it can be considered as stable. The official homepage is located at: http://rnvs.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/ipp2p/index_en.html As an example for traffic shaping look at the following picture. I used an eDonkey client and gave it as much upload bandwidth as possible. After a while I used IPP2P on a bridge for traffic shaping to 2MBits/sec without changing the client setting. The result looked like this: http://rnvs.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/ipp2p/delay/color_tp_60e_5p_p2p_src-1.png So if you believe there could be a benefit of such an extension I'll create a patch for pom-ng. Best regards, Eicke.
