[LARTC] Limiting bandwidth usage - where to begin

[LARTC] Limiting bandwidth usage - where to begin

[Aqil]

Hi,

I am very new in this list..

I want each of my internet users to be limited in
his/her usage of bandwidth. The limitation will be
done in my squid (linux) box, as they all have to be
authenticated by squid before going to the internet
jungle..
Then anybody here could tell me where to begin to do
such thing ?

Any idea/solution would be very appreciated

TIA

regards,
aqil

On squid, bandwidth limiting based on delay pools.
And it unable to burst, CMIIW. If you want your users get maximum rate when
the others idle, use HTB.. They would be shape at minimum rate when the
others request for more bandwidth.

I am using HTB and SFQ as leaf, and so far my bandwidth management running
fine and all users i managed so happy with the new system i applied.

But i have one small problem, that i might need solutions from the list..
My connection to ISP not in clear channel quality. They applied burstable
rate for me also.
So how do i set HTB to follow the total bandwidth allocated my ISP to my
backbone.

Rio Martin.

I plan to combine delay pools directive from squid and
the usage of HTB and SFQ ? Do you ? 
Is there any drawback of doing such thing ?

Sounds to be interesting ...

Does your bandwidth manager mean : HTB + SFQ ? Or are
there any other additional tools?

Where (in which macine/device) do you apply your HTB
and SFQ ? Could you show me how is your network
configured ?

BTW, which documentation(s) to read do you recommend
in order to be able to use/configure HTB and SFQ ?

Still can't give any solution for your mentionned
problem.. sorry.
