Sirs,

I am searching a tool to dynamically control bandwidth in my network.

Suppose I have a network composed of some subnets. I don't want
that one single subnet takes control of the whole bandwidth thought
the gateway. There are some solutions like iproute with cbq etc.
But I would like to have the flow control of the network, through
my gateway, dynamically handled. That means, if subnet 1 needs all
the bandwidth for less than 1 minute, that ok. The burst of 1 minute
is tolerated. But after this 1 minute I must reduce the bandwidth
it is using until it reaches a minimum that is fair to the others.

I saw many Papers on the net with plenty of algorithms to handle
queues an so on.

Is there a software for a a Linux router that solves my problem? If
doesn't, what do we have that is closest to what I need?

main(){int j=1234;char t[]=":@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.\n"
,*i = "iqgbgxmlvivuc\n:wwnfwsdoi"; char *strchr(char *,int);
while(*i){j+=strchr(t,*i++)-t;j%=sizeof t-1;putchar(t[j]);}}

Hi,

try tc (traffic control) and htb, as far as I know it is more flexible
and easier to configure. Fire Google with something like "iptables tc
htb example" and you will find lot of example configurations and
explanations ...
