Thanks.
Out of interest will this only limit connects incoming to the server and
not outgoing?
For example, a user connects via VPN to the server, their connection
should be limited to 2Mbps (3in the example below) but they are
connecting to say www.youtube.com. I do not want the connection to
youtube.com to be restricted as maybe 10 users might be accessing
youtube at the same time.
So the server can have an unlimited outgoing connection to youtube but
when it passes on the connection to the client (much like a proxy server
might do), they should only have 2Mbps.
Now the reason I asked for a tutorial somewhere is I went through the
LARTC tutorial (which just looks like a blank white document) and my
understanding of leaf, HTB, U32, qdisc, etc is kind of lacking :)

Does anyone have a tutorial recommendation for tc?
I tried the existing tutorials on LARTC and they were all lacking
examples - also the pages look like they were written 10 years ago.
I want to limit bandwidth per ip address on my server.
If you check the archives there's a discussion going on right now about
this...
You can use a classful qdisc such as HTB, create a leaf for each IP
address, then filter into that leaf using the U32 filters.
Something like this (untested - I've only copied from the list
archives):
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: htb r2q 1
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 htb \
rate 3000kbit ceil 3000kbit
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:100 htb \
rate 1500kbit ceil 1500kbit prio 3
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip u32 \
match ip dst 172.16.254.1/32 classid 1:100
tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:100 handle 100: sfq perturb 2
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:101 htb \
rate 1500kbit ceil 1500kbit prio 3
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip u32 \
match ip dst 172.16.254.2/32 classid 1:101
tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:101 handle 101: sfq perturb 2
...
You'll need a leaf class for each IP address, and all the leaf classes
should add up to the parent.
By the way - please start a new email when starting a new thread. If you
reply to a previous email and change the subject then your email will
still appear in the original thread in the message archives.
