I’m looking for some advice - a client of ours has enquired about
bandwidth shaping for their multi-tenanted office building.  We supply
them with ISP and they have around 20-30 companies onsite. They are
looking to tier the provision, mostly as a revenue generator.


I would ask what they have onsite at the moment.

Because they presumably have a 100meg connection in, and somehow that gets into the offices of 2o0ish tenants.


I ask because lots of enterprise type switches can do basic rate limiting.

Or they could just be really noddy and change the port to 10 Meg :)


The above isn't going to be very pretty, but it might be a solution which is low cost, doesn't introduce another SPOF ....
