Do you really want to reserve bandwidth, or guarantee QOS quality of =
service to the 'vip'?

Hi !!=20

Our management asked us to reserve some bandwidth to our vip users, and, =
as=20
we use Squid proxy, I was thinking that we could achieve it by setting =
an=20
outgoing ip address at the Squid proxy based on the user=B4s group, and=20
reserve bandwidth at the iptables firewall based on this ip address.=20

Is this feasible? Can we reserve bandwidth with iptables alone, or shoule =
we=20
use another product as well?=20

Thanks in advance,=20
