[c-nsp] shaping outbound

[Arie Vayner (avayner)]

Dan,

On the ingress direction,  you can apply a policer on specific classes,
and limit the rate.
As you are most likely talking about TCP based applications, policing
them would make the applications regulate their download rate.

Hello,

I'm confused as to when and where it is possible to shape traffic.  I
have a 50Mbps internet connection from our ISP and I would like to shape
some of the download traffic using our 2821.  Here is what I have setup:

lan users ----- g0/0 - 2821 - g0/1 ------internet

Currently I have no way of limiting someone from using up the entire
pipe.  My thought was to add a policy-map in the outbound direction on
the G0/0 interface and shape based on NBAR protocols or something like
that.   Apparently this is not the correct way to do this....If I
apply a policy-map in the outbound direction on G0/1 this helps nothing
because it only shapes the upload traffic which is minimal at peak
times.

Any idea on how to go about this?  Or Am I stuck with buying a
ridiculously expensive packet shaper or something of the sorts?

Thanks,
Dan.
