Check out pf (packet filter)

and 

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/security/pf/pkg-descr

pf includes ALTQ for bandwidth control.

Certainly dummynet(4) comes to mind --- it would easily do per *IP*
BW limits...so it might depend a tad on your network topography.

Ooh, now I read that again, and I think I just wasted that
last post.  Different scenario.
Sorry for the noise.

ipfw rules plus dummynet should be able to do what you want.  ipfw can
filter on the uid or gid of the process sending/receiving the packet, so
this should cause all non-root packets to get filtered through dummynet 
pipe 1 (which you could configure to run at 90% of your true capacity):

ipfw add 400 skipto 402 ip from any to any uid root
ipfw add 401 pipe 1 ip from any to any
 
Hopefully ipfw will soon get the ability to use ALTQ which was recently
merged into -current, so you can do some more advanced limiting.

Bandwidth limiting affects busy network services, certainly.  If you want to 
adjust the queue length, you should consider the available bandwidth divided 
by the MTU (gives units of packets over time).

I think that mail server can handle it because SMTP will work under slow
link. Does this limitation suitable for Web Server ( http protocol ) ?!! 
This will work with HTTP, yes.

RE: bandwidth limiting

2002-07-19 Thread Øystein Andreassen



man dummynet
man ipfw
 'Traffic Shaper Configuration'

It has nothing to do with the 'pipe' (man pipe) command. But you create
pipes with ipfw, like this:

 ipfw add pipe 10 ip from any to any

Subject: bandwidth limiting


Hi List

I would like to limit bandwidth on a per user basis ON my 4.6 box, is this 
possible ? Or perhaps limit them on a per ipaddress basis. I have 2 
interfaces( ext and int ) and I am running ipfw. I read somewhere that you 
can use pipe with ipfw for this but am having a little difficulty 
understanding this and there is very little info on man pipe. Any 
suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Nelis
