I have a situation where our link is being saturated (3+second rtt) by _incoming_ web traffic going into the squid cache. If I set up dummynet on the firewall so that all traffic to the web cache goes via a pipe with 96kB/ sec bandwidth limit (on a 128k link), will that be enough to leave some room on the pipe for the rest of the packets? I can see easily how well dummynet would work if applied to the _sending_ end of the congested link, how well does it work on the _receiving_ end? Hints, experiences, comments welcome. Greg.
