Use ALTQ: http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/kjc/programs.html#ALTQ

Does dynamic BW limiting better than a static ipfw rule.

To -hackers:
When gets this code merged to -current and what about the if_dequeueing
abstraction layer Kenjiro Cho is suggesting? Cisco beware! We are on the
way with picoBSD booting from PCCARD and Zebra (http://www.zebra.org), a
BGP4/OSPFv2/RIPii routing daemon (yea! delete that crappy gated s***).
The last thing we need on our way is a Cisco-IOS shell integrating all
those features under the well-known IOS command syntax.

Beat 'em! (BTW, just my $0.02)
