Looking to use this system to shape bandwidth in Iraq for multiple
users on a satellite link without a server. Does anyone out there
do a similar thing, if so can I please get your specifications and
set up, with any advice you may have.
We use Soekris boxes for Wireless APs and routers in small towns.
They work quite well for our needs. If you are looking for software
to do QoS/Firewall I would suggest looking at the following:
http://www.pfsense.com/ - WebGUI, QoS, firewall(pf), FreeBSD based.
It has a lot of other neat features, I believe it needs a 4801.
leaf.sourceforge.net - We are using wisp-dist, and planning on
moving to bering-uclibc , It has shorewall firewall and QoS
available. It also has alot of other software packages for advanced
use.
You can also go the route of installing linux/freeBSD/openBSD and
build your own system.
Also does anyone use this in conjunction with addressable switches
and a server?
Not sure what you mean by this.
I also have a Server system with Cisco VOIP phones that I would
like to control bandwidth for surfing on.
QoS as mentioned above. I am sure other people will have other great
options also. just my $0.02.
