We pay together for internet access and have a Linux router/gateway. Now we want to expand a little, i.e. buy a bit more bandwidth and achieve the following: - A possibility to assign a public IP address to a household (some people want to have their own servers at home) - Split the bandwidth to a requested level, so that some people could get more, some less, and pay their appropriate share in the overall link cost. It looks to me as a small ISP-like problem :) Of course we run this network privately, so we can't afford a professional bandwidth limiting software or hardware solution. To be honest I'm not a Linux guru [yet ;)], so learning about LARTC, experimenting and maintaining it will take some time. In the meantime I was wondering, whether someone has experience with such a setup, with multiple network adapters and hopefully some administration aids (a web-based interface would be a dream). Anyone can help?...
