I've taken another look at this and it looks to me as though Cake would
fit nicely into the 'Simple' traffic shaping method:

- There are no classes required
- As in the current Simple implementation, diffserv is used for priority
  queuing (but Cake is easier to configure).
- The tcpri file could be used to override the normally selected tin (
  which will generate a 'skbedit priority' filter when using Cake.

The TYPE column contents (external/internal) can map to 'egress' and
'ingress' respectively. The IN_BANDWIDTH column can continue to
configure a policing filter. The OUT_BANDWIDTH column maps to the Cake
'bandwidth' option. We can add an OPTIONS column to specify the other
Cake options.

Any comments?

Thanks,

-Tom
