If I need to rate limit file transfers between to machines, what can I
do at the host-level within CentOS, and what might I need to "yum
install" in order to do?
(For example, say I would like to rsync something, and then I would
like to make sure that I don't exceed, say, 10 Mbs.)

rsync has a built in rate limiter. See the man pages for more details
--bwlimit=KBPS limit I/O bandwidth; KBytes per second
Other ways would be to utilize a firewall or switch with built in QoS to
perform such tasks. I believe Netfilter supports this type of thing.
