[LARTC] shape traffice for each service

[Dhaval Patel]

Hi, I would like to control the amount of bandwidth provided to each service.
such as 40kbps max for ftp, 50kbps max for http and so on. Or perhaps 30% for
ftp, 50% for http and so on. I think i remember reading something on the web
which shows how to do that but I cannot find it anylonger. Can anyone point me
to something? Thanks, I appreciate your help.

Dhaval

You need to put packets in classes based on firewall marks, most likely. 
  I do shaping based on packet size to affect only large (bulk-transfer) 
packets; this is only possible using fwmark.  Rusty's Remarkably 
Unreliable Guides document firewall marks; the lartc howto documents 
using them for classifying.

The HOWTO on the site that runs this list is a perfect place to start:
