We're using a relatively simple traffic-shaping scheme to manage upload bandwidth. Traffic is tagged using fwmark into one of six priority classes in the "shaper" chain in /etc/firewall.conf.
/etc/network/if-up.d/traffic-shaping then configures the traffic shaping (you shouldn't need to touch this and you should tell Russ if you do).

iptables-restore < /etc/firewall.conf

Traffic Shaping

We're using a relatively simple traffic-shaping scheme to manage upload bandwidth. Traffic is tagged using fwmark into one of six priority classes in the "shaper" chain in /etc/firewall.conf.

Access

We like stable internet, so we're not going to hand out accounts willy-nilly. If you need a port mapped, ask one of these people:

If you want to do something more fancy, we'll probably give you access as long as you let us know first :).
