If you want to classify incoming traffic, create classes, attach queuing disciplines, and those nice things available in the outgoing traffic, you must: a) Patch your kernel with IMQ, redirect incoming traffic to it, and treat this device as you would any "outgoing" traffic, or... b) ...manage bandwidth in the outgoing direction on the other network card attached to the router (if this is a router).
