Yes,

You can use tc on a bridge.  See also this thread:

  http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2003q1/007378.html

If you are just going to perform traffic control, and you don't need to
use iptables, you don't need the bridge+nf functionality.

Add your filters to the "real" devices, not br0.

 : use the full 2Mb but only if there is no traffic to/from other clients.
 : I've been looking at htb.init and cbq.init, and believe that the BURST

 : Am I right in thinking that I'll be able to use tc within the bridge ?
