Raghuveer, : I would like to know whether can we do bandwidth management(traffic : control) for incomming traffic to firewall. For ex;- If my firewall WAN : interface IP is 203.145.1.2 and any data from internet comming to : 203.145.1.2 whether can be controlled...? If my total bandwidth= 512kb : and I want to allocate 100kb to a LAN m/c with IP 192.168.1.2 for http : traffic, how will I do it..? If your linux host is not the source or sink for any of the traffic, you can shape the inbound traffic on the inside interface of your bandwidth management box. If, however, the directly connected box is the source or sink for traffic, you'll need to look at other options. I would suggest considering IMQ.
