Am I correct in assuming that you only need to use the Ingres qdisc if
you're not the router between two networks (namely the internet and your
customers).  We have CBQ/TBF setup for our incoming traffic (internet to
customer).  Can the same rules be applied in reverse for outgoing traffic
(customer to internet)?

Thanks,
