RE: [LARTC] Controlling only delay using HTB without stealing excess bandwidth

["Mike" <mike@superiorholidayadventures.ca>]

I disagree here.  You can easily use IPTables to mark packets based on
just about anything (source/dest IP, MAC, source/dest port, etc). You
can then use those marks to assign traffic to the HTB classes you wish.
