+Traffic Shaper For Linux
+
+This is the current ALPHA release of the traffic shaper for Linux. It works
+within the following limits:
+
+o Minimum shaping speed is currently about 9600 baud (it can only
+ shape down to 1 byte per clock tick)
+
+o Maximum is about 256K, it will go above this but get a bit blocky.
+
+o If you ifconfig the master device that a shaper is attached to down
+ then your machine will follow.
+
+o The shaper must be a module.
+
+
+Setup:
+
+A shaper device is configured using the shapeconfig program.
+Typically you will do something like this
+
+shapecfg attach shaper0 eth1
+shapecfg speed shaper0 64000
+ifconfig shaper0 myhost netmask 255.255.255.240 broadcast 1.2.3.4.255 up
+route add -net some.network netmask a.b.c.d dev shaper0
+
+The shaper should have the same IP address as the device it is attached to
+for normal use.
+
+Gotchas:
+
+ The shaper shapes transmitted traffic. It's rather impossible to
+shape received traffic except at the end (or a router) transmitting it.
+
+ Gated/routed/rwhod/mrouted all see the shaper as an additional device
+and will treat it as such unless patched. Note that for mrouted you can run
+mrouted tunnels via a traffic shaper to control bandwidth usage.
+
+ The shaper is device/route based. This makes it very easy to use
+with any setup BUT less flexible. You may well want to combine this patch
+with Mike McLagan 's patch to allow routes to be
+specified by source/destination pairs.
+
+ There is no "borrowing" or "sharing" scheme. This is a simple
+traffic limiter. I'd like to implement Van Jacobson and Sally Floyd's CBQ
+architecture into Linux one day (maybe in 2.1 sometime) and do this with
+style.
