Shorewall's Simple Traffic Shaping configures the prio
- qdisc(rx-prio(8)) on the designated interface then adds an sfq (tc-sfq
- (8)) qdisc to each of the classes that are implicitly created for the prio
- qdisc. The sfq qdisc ensures fairness among packets queued in each of the
- classes such that each flow (session) gets its turn

- traffic being sent by a given IP address (normally
- defined for an external interface) or all traffic being sent

Finally, Simple Traffic Shaping allows you to set a limit on the
