You can use the suggested solutions but you cant stop them all. And it
takes only one guy to successfully connect to any p2p network and hog
all your bandwidth.

The only way is limit bandwidth. You should try to look at htb and
cfq. but this is hair pulling territory. YMMV.


Hello Rogelio,

Agreed here, QoS and traffic shaping is the way to go IMHO. If I had to pick one over the other, I'd definitely pick HTB over CBQ and attach a stochastic fair queueing discipline at the leaves of each class. Works great. Furthermore, my colleagues and I have consistently experienced strange behavior from CBQ.

By the way, I've been meaning to replace one of my organization's main PC routers with a cisco router. Problem is, this is where most of my HTB scripts and content filtering resides. I know this is OT, but I'd like to take this opportunity to ask if anyone here has had experience with QoS in IOS? Specifically, I'm wondering if it's capable of everything HTB is capable of doing. Admittedly, I still have to read up on this particular IOS function thoroughly. Any feedback and gotchas will be greatly appreciated though.
