The traffic shaper is a sophisticated but
easy-to-use shell script for throttling or
granting a certain bandwidth to certain
connections. Additionally, it implements an
easy-to-configure packet filter. Both parts are
based on facilities provided by the Linux 2.4
kernel (iproute2 for the traffic shaper and
netfilter with IPTables for the packet filter).
The packet filter offers independent SYN/ACK
check, and stateful and log rules for each
configured rule.
