1. Please do some research before asking a question. E.g. Googling for bandwidth allocation squid throws up http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/bandwidth-allocation-in-squid-150537/ as the first hit. Have you seen Squid FAQs for this? If so, please preface your questions with what research has been done, what you searched for, where you looked and what you did not find. 2. If you want some help, please ask the question with specifics of the environment instead of a generic question. 3. You cannot allocate bandwidth specifically but throttle/choke using delay pools to specific hard limits. Read http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bandwidth-Limiting-HOWTO/install.html 4. If you want to allocate bandwidth, a better solution would be to use tc to use spare bandwidth allocations etc. In your case, if you are using a proxy, class identification should be used in conjunction with marking to identify request source subnet as all packet headers would've proxy server IP as source address. This marking will need to be done by squid. -- Mohan Sundaram _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
