There may be traffic for a local (linux box) process, but the most of the traffic will be redirected or passed.
Do you want to shape eth0 aswell as the internet
link or is it OK for spare bandwidth?
I cannot translate/understand perfectly this question, but I do need to shape the internet link.
I didn't know if there was other (LAN) traffic that needed shaping aswell as internet traffic.
So, returning to the question that originated this discussion, how can I diferentiate/separate incoming and outgoing traffic for the same interface (eth0), without confusing each other, and without using IMQ devices if possible ??
If bulk transfers from internet to shaping box are rare enough for you not to care about them, then you can do without IMQ.
As for seperating traffic - in prerouting you should be able to mark traffic by source MAC address (1600) and the same in postrouting for destination MAC. You could then use the marks to send to different HTB classes that don't share.
