Mon ikke iprelay kan bruges?

Description: User-space bandwidth shaping TCP proxy daemon
iprelay can shape the TCP traffic forwarded through it to a specified
bandwidth and allow this bandwidth to be changed on-the-fly. Multiple
data streams to different sockets may be shaped to the same total
bandwidth, much like a traffic shaping router would. However, this
application runs in user space, and works by acting as a TCP proxy.
Here's what the author would like you to know: ip_relay sprang from
the fact that I use a modem for home Internet connectivity, and once
a large download has started, other Internet activities: telnet,
surfing, VOIP, are largely useless. With ip_relay, you can suddenly
decide to shape your downloads to 50% of your available bandwidth,
and make use of the more interactive applications.
After using ip_relay for a while, it became obvious to me that it had
another use: simulating bandwidth limits for other applications. Most
notably was testing VNC over an ethernet connection, but at modem
speeds.
The original software is called ip_relay
(
http://www.stewart.com.au/ip_relay/) but its name has been changed
according to Debian policy.
