linux traffic control - setting global bandwidth limit on a single vlan interface
First time looking at linux traffic controls. It appears much more complicated than I'm qualified for.
I have a library with a 10mbps cable Internet connection. Have segmented the internal network to a couple of internal vlans via my linux server (operating as a router).
The problem: The public computer lab vlan is using all the internet access and the staff vlan then has problems using their internet. Would like to limit the computer lab vlan to 6 or 7mbps. We don't care about any specific qos for voip or ssh etc.
Does anyone have a tc set of command lines to setup a limit on traffic to and from a vlan interface on this linux router?
I see that zeroshell does this but I can't figure the end tc htb from the scripts zeroshell uses......
Appreciate any assistance you can give.
Thanks
Tom

I disagree with better, as the script is essentially the same as the original, changes that are there are mainly for DEBIAN packaging purposes, and some usability in a DEBIAN context.
[ The original script could not run by itself, id needed to be edited on purpose ].
Besides the defaults, if you want some other prioritization the script still needs to be edited.
It is still required to read the readme's etc.
For the non-debian user there is more work involved.
