traffic shape per ip

traffic shape per ip

[binary]

Hello everyone.


i am running a small server that everyone connects on it through openvpn.
once connected the server offers some services to the connected members 
(voip, php forms, company email).
i would to limit the bandwidth of some users based on IPs:
-10.10.0.10-19/24 gets only 1Mbps up/down
-10.10.0.20-29/24 gets only 2Mbps up/down
-the rest of the subnet is free of traffic shapping

the server has an ethernet (eth0) connected to the outside world by 
public IP and the VPN users connected throught the br0 (virtual interface).
i have seen the tc option on the iptables, but this is where i've lost it.

the server runs debian wheezy 7.1

This is not as simple as you might think. In order to shape per-IP,
you'll need to set up a class for each individual IP address, and then
filter to that class. I am not aware of a way to write one rule to say
"limit each IP address to this amount".

Presumably the reason to filter per-IP is to stop single users hogging
the bandwidth. If so, a better approach might be to classify the type of
traffic and then shape on that, or alternatively share bandwidth evenly
per-IP rather than per-connection (as is the default). There is some
information on how to do this on this page at the end of the "downlink"
section:

If you have any more questions you might want to use the LARTC mailing
list instead of this mailing list.

Re: traffic shape per ip

[Bob Miller]

Perhaps a little late to weigh in, but I found this to be an interesting
thread.  Ray, thanks for sharing your script, I found it an educational
read.  

I have always found it interesting that nobody ever seems to use/mention
tcng to implement the shaping.  I found the learning curve a little
steep because there isn't a lot of examples and documentation, but now
that I have it, shaping is actually very very easy.  This said, I have
never tried to use it to shape traffic on a vpn, but if you are
attaching the vpn to an interface, I don't see why it wouldn't work.  

In case it is useful, I put an example of how to use tcng to limit speed
on a public access network here:

I asked about the lartc mailing list on this list some years ago.  Based
on the response I got, my understanding is that the lartc list is not
active, and I was instructed to send my tc questions here instead.  Do
you have new information such that I should be adjusting my
understanding?

The LARTC list did die for a period, but has now been resurrected,
hosted on vger.kernel.org. It's not as active as it used to be, but does
have the occasional interesting discussion.
