Hi. I was wondering if anyone had ideas about this. I am interested in doing the following: Node A connects to Node B through an iptables/netfilter box on port 80. The netfilter is providing NAT services to Node B and portforwarding. Node A then downloads X amount of data from node B. When X amount of data reaches a certain limit, say 50mb then the netfilter box drops all further connections from Node A for a specified period of time, say 12 hours. Is this possible with netfilter? would this be something better suited to Squid or even perhapse some of the ip and traffic shaping stuff? Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
