Hello, I'm working on a customized Linux firewall/router for a small/medium ISP (1200 users) we have almost 4 ranges of internal IPs and i want to limit each IP to a certain speed. The problem is that i'm storing all info about the user including IP and bandwidth rates on a MySQL server, then dump all the htb/sfq lines on a file (which takes 3 minutes) and then i run these files. This process kills my machine for 3-4 minutes until dumping all htb/sqf/iptables into files and running these files (remember that i almost have 1200 IPs, and each IP has 6 HTB+SFQ line with 2 iptables) Is there another method more efficient than re-running my files every time i add/edit/del a user?
