Dynamic bandwith

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hello,

I curently have setup bandwith limiting by using cbq.init script to limit
about 100 workstations to a specific amount of bandwith, but I need to
change that to a dynamic bandwith allocation.

I'm using a rh9 router with kernel 2.4.21 and I want to setup bandwith
allocation dynamically between active users. If one needs more bandwith and
it is available, he must be able to use it. In my curent setup if I have
only one active user on network, his download/browsing speed can't increase,
he will always be limmited at a specific rate.
I also have local traffic (metropolitan traffic - a couple of ip classes
that some sites in my town are using and for which I have access at a
greater speed than the speed for external traffic, the rest of internet).
If it's necesary I will switch to HTB, it doesn't matter, the point is that
I need to get this done and the docs that I found on the net are a little
confusing.

I also need to prioritize interactive traffic (IRC and yahoo/msn messengers)
and ICMP ping (to impress my boss :-) ).

The documentation has done nothing but to confuse me in this situation.
Please help me with this!

Thank you in advance for any kind of help.

Alex
