Hi I am rather new to Linux and QoS etc .... I spending the last few days reading through all the documentation available. I only have on question. My setup is as follows. I have a cisco router connected to the internet. Then I have a linux machine with two NIC which serves as gateway for my private network. My question is if it is possible to limit the bandwidth for mail coming from the internet on the linux machine or do I have to this on the router. If so can the outgoing mail to the internet be shaped on the linux machine. Isak
Hi I am reading through your documents but maybe in the meantime you can help me by looking at what I wants tot do. Ok here we go. I have a 128kbit line to the internet. As previously mentioned it is coming in through a cisco router. I also have a linux server which has two NIC. Eth0 is connected to the router and eth1 to the LAN. I have a few workstations connected to the LAN. The linux server do masquerading for the workstations. The linux machine also serves as mail server. I need to shape the mail that is coming in from the internet to 25% of the bandwidth available and also wants to shape mail that''s being sent out from the workstations to a maximum of 25% of the bandwidth available. This is in short the first thing I want to do. If you need more info would you please let me know.
