I have ~seen ~examples on creating a class per host but is there a simple way of ~saying "any host from 192.168.1.0/24" so I dont have 253 rules? Yeah, I think I can answer this :-). Upload mark iptables -t mangle -A FORWARD -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j MARK --set-mark 4 Download mark iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -s ! 192.168.0.0/24 -d 192.168.0.0/24 -j MARK --set-mark 5 Then if you are using htb: just make your root qdisk, classes, filters, and then the qdisk.
