Betreff: bandwidth shaping question (up+downstream together)


Hello,

I'm new to bandwidth shaping and cbq and got a question. I'd like to sell
"bandwidth" to my customers. For example one Megabit or 10 Mbits or
whatever. It shall not play a role whether the traffic is up- or downstream.
All I want to limit is the total traffic of my customers.

I've been surfing around for a while and found some scripts that allow
limiting the bandwidth for an Ethernet-device or a subnet - BUT all of those
programs are only intended for one direction: either up or downstream.

So.. is it possible at all to limit the "total" amount of bandwidth an
Ethernet device (like eth0) and/or a subnet (like 192.168.0.0/24) can cause
?


Thanks a lot,
Gunther Stammwitz

Hi.

that cant be true... oh noooooooooo !
Isn't it possible to - lets say.. create a closs of 2 mbit and divide this
class into two sub-classes: one for up and one for downstream ?

thanks,
Gunther

[Gunther Stammwitz]

it was just an example.

What I want to do is to sell 2 MBit bandwidth to my customer.
I don't care how much he uses for the up- and how much for the downsteam -
it does only matter that the total bandwidth (add the two diretions) does
NOT exceed 2 MBit.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Gunther

Can I ask why on earth you'd want to do this?
