Use ALTQ: http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/kjc/programs.html#ALTQ Does dynamic BW limiting better than a static ipfw rule. To -hackers: When gets this code merged to -current and what about the if_dequeueing abstraction layer Kenjiro Cho is suggesting? Cisco beware! We are on the way with picoBSD booting from PCCARD and Zebra (http://www.zebra.org), a BGP4/OSPFv2/RIPii routing daemon (yea! delete that crappy gated s***). The last thing we need on our way is a Cisco-IOS shell integrating all those features under the well-known IOS command syntax. Beat 'em!
