I'd like to limit bandwidth to a set of local hosts by adding an appropriate config to my router.
IIUC I can limit the bandwidth like I want with:
tc qdisc add dev $IF root tbf burst 1mb rate 100kbps
Except that this affects all machines connected to $IF, whereas I only want some of them to be affected. I figured that I can tag the relevant packets with something like:
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -j CLASSIFY \
--dst 192.168.1.128/25 --set-class 1:10
However, the missing part I can't figure out is which classful scheduler to use on $IF, and how to add a tbf queue for those packets of the 1:10 class.
[ BTW, I see someone voted to close this question. Any idea why? Would there be a better place to ask such questions? ]
