Thanks. > What do you exactly need to do? Limit a host's traffic to, let's say, 8.5kpps, drop any "exceeded" packet. I guess, dstlimit will not help me too :-( Limiting such a rates on firewalls seems to be too expensive and i don't mention a firewall (iptables) as a tool for doing that. No, surely, i am asking for help :-) Is there any tools, which can handle and limit such pps rates? -m limit, if i can remember, accepts limits up to 10k, but it seems to be *terribly* wrong on limiting that... I wish i would be incorrect... > $IPT -t mangle -I FORWARD -i eth1 -j LIMITPAK [...] Thanks, anyway. > -- > | pozdrawiam / greetings | powered by Trustix, Gentoo and FreeBSD | > | Kajetan Staszkiewicz | jabber,email,www: vegeta()tuxpowered net | > | Vegeta | IMQ devnames: http://www.tuxpowered.net | > `------------------------^------------------------------------------' > _______________________________________________ > LARTC mailing list > LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc -- _,-=._ /|_/| `-.} `=._,.-=-._., @ @._, `._ _,-. ) _,.-' ` G.m-"^m`m' Dmytro O.
