Like Gideon replied, you need 1 class for each client. You can use the
ip-address of the client to classify the packets. If you put a linux router
(or bridge) in your link, you can shape on both network cards so you can
contrl both directions of the traffic.

I have some scripts that can generate graphs. You can find it on
www.docum.org. They are part of the GUI package, but you can use them just
to generate the graphs. I use rrdtool to store/graph long term information
and a java program to show real-time graphs.
