So, change the problem so that you rate limit what is sent to your router. I would do this by having the incoming connection go into a Network Namespace and a new virtual connection to the main part of the router. This Network Namespace can then easily rate limit what it sends to the main part of the router, on a single interface. > This is the same problem that ifb solves, right? > I’m not sure I want to assume that Namespaces are available in all scenarios. Interesting... i've found: https://blog.scottlowe.org/2013/09/04/introducing-linux-network-namespaces/ and i've not understood how can i 'link' phisical interfaces with vethX. Using bond? But after that, i need to use ebtales? ifbX interfaces are very limited by not having connection tracking, having some 'real' interfaces would be a must! -- dott.
