Please look up http://www.lartc.org for more details or google for QOS Howtos on Linux or look up http://www.tldp.org for howtos across scenarios. While it may not seem very obvious, this is done by implementing egress QOS on the LAN facing interface(s) on a Linux machine used as a gateway, most often assuming gateway generated traffic to the LAN is pretty insignificant. This is valid in most cases. Where it is not, gateway initiated traffic is also treated as a class and monitored. -- Mohan Sundaram _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
