Subject: [LARTC] Shaping traffic by flows
Date: Tue, 13 May 2003 16:47:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-lartc-105284563727431@msgid-missing> (raw)

Hi,

I'm not sure if this question already came up in this list, but 
I seem to be unable to find an answer for it. 
I have a server and a few thousand of clients that can access 
the server. I would like to setup a traffic shaping such a way 
that each particulat client is given a particular bandwith. 
Let's say each client (clients differentiated by ip address) is 
allowed to use no more than 100kbit of download bandwith.
So it is my understanding that traffic should be differentiated 
by flows and each flow should be given a particular bandwith
with any queueing  discipline available. The question is how to 
do it.
I can't figure out a way to accomplish it except writing thousands 
of filtering rules for each ip and also thousands classes for them.
I probably can use hashing filters but it wouldn't eliminate 
thousands of classes each with the same shaping rate.
So once again the question is whether it's possible to shape each
flow from a particular ip range to the particular rate?
Thanks everybody.

Michael
