Hell everybody,
Yesterday I faced a problem with the shaper I use. Here's my topology
and I'll describe the problem later after the topology.
10.0.1.0 /24 10.0.1.100 eth0
eth1 eth0 10.0.1.1 eth1
+-------------+ +-------------+ +------------------+

| Internal | | | | Traffic shaper |

| Network |-------------->| Squid proxy |---->| Bridge
|------>| Firewall |

+-------------+ +-------------+ +------------------+

Well this is the http and ftp traffic flow on my netwrok. Some of my
users used to download huge files from the web.
Is there any way to slow down specific IP addresses even if they conect
through the proxy ??
For example I want to slow down the requests made from 10.0.1.51 but
only that host. If I apply a filter for that IP it does not make any
sense cause in fact the proxy is making the connection for that host.
Has anybody else faced this problem ?
Any ideas or suggestions ?
