Source: Freshmeat Daily News htb-gen is an easy, scalable bandwidth management
tool. You can set up/down portions of bandwith for
each host or network that goes through your
router/firewall. Priority traffic (Web, email,
gaming, FTK, VOIP, and streaming) is preferred
over junk traffic (Kazaa, emule, etc). Dynamic
bandwith borrowing and reassignment is done betwen
hosts thanks to htb boundaries. A Web frontend for
config is avaible, so remote management is
possible. It is bash-based, so it can be used in
embedded routers/firewalls (wired/wireless). Two
backends are aviable: one that generates raw tc
commands, and one that generates htb-init conf
files (util for integration). The packet
clasification is done by iptables.
