It is nerly FAQ. You can use Ingres qdisc to do it and attach policers here. It would be nice to be able to attach every qdisc to incoming interface but it is not possible. There is always problem - when packet already hitted your box why do you want to drop/delay it ? You should to do it on outgoing side of link to your box .. When you are router (not app box) then you can shape both directions. On your virtual-host note. I already did patch (called IMQ) which implements virtual inteface allowing to attach single qdisc to multiple outgoing devices. It should be relatively easy to extend it to catch incoming packets too - only there is no time to do it. best regards, devik On 19 Nov 2001, Manfred Bartz wrote: > > I would like to differentiate incoming traffic streams to guarantee > minimum bandwidth to some services.
