[c-nsp] Dealing with bit torrent and other P2P applications

What about using NBAR or plain access-lists to match *known* traffic and
give it priority and some assured bandwidth and leave everything else to a
best-effort amount of bandwidth ?

            I realize that Cisco has NBAR to deal with Kazaa and
Morpheus, but is there anything for dealing with bittorrent (aside from
blocking/rate-limiting the TCP ports)?



            As with most ISPs, we are also dealing with the same problem
here of P2P not generating enough revenue to justify its cost, and I
just wanted to see what people elsewhere are doing...
