http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ip_dummynet/ is the home of dummynet ;-)

Another search I did also mentioned that you can use ipfw keywords like
recv/xmit to determine the direction of bandwidth control.

Search the -questions list archives for 'dummynet' and look for the name
Alfred Perlstein.

I hope that helps you.
