I am trying to limit the bandwidth available to some connections and I'm not
sure FreeBSD can handle this. Maybe some of you can help. Here's what I need
to have exactly.
No matter what the number of connections, each connection should have at
most/least 50kbps guaranteed outbound on port 80.
I've tried dummynet but it doesn't do what I need because if I define a pipe
with 1mbps and if I have 1000 connections, each connection will have less
than 50kbps.
Any way to do this in FreeBSD ?
I can't think of any way to dynamically allocate a new pipe for each
individual connection with any firewall software I've used.
Have you considered getting your web server to do the limiting for you? I
think "mod_bandwidth" for Apache is designed to do what you're asking, but
I've never used it.
