Hi! Currently I'm controlling 4 Mbit Connection based on the source and destination ports, so that ftp traffic doesn't clog the line and udp packets and other time critical things (ssh, irc, etc...) get priority.
Normally that works just fine, but two problems remain: - How do I recognize traffic from non-standard ports? (like a ftp-server on port 1337) - Big http-transfers still clog the line I want my users to be able to surf fast. But when they download big files from a webserver this transfer should be slowed down. Perhaps a way to slow down any connection that exceeds a certain size would solve both problems. Any suggestions, pointers or ideas for a better policy are welcome! Arvid -- in bunten Bildern wenig Klarheit, viel Irrtum und ein Fünkchen Wahrheit (Johann Wolfgang v.
