Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator is a ready-to-use software that allocates bandwidth on crowded networks.
Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator is a software which is designed for network administrators who are at the beginner or advanced level. With this software, they can easily control the bandwidth of their network. One of the most useful features is that it is completely turn-key in its default configuration, meaning that it requires no administration or set up. Once it is plugged into the network trunk, it self-configures and immediately starts slowing down bandwidth hogs.
This software is compatible with the 2.4.25 kernel, ebtables, and brouter (bridging router), and comes with denial of service protection. Users can also configure it to target specific applications such as Kazaa, IMAP, and POP. With its unique implementation, it is possible to limit incoming Internet traffic.
Some key features of Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator include its fully redundant built-in Bridging system, which ensures that it will always work properly, and its ability to scale to various types of connections, whether dial-up, DSL, T1, or 40mbs. It determines the actual trunk speed and dynamically adjusts the bandwidth limiting accordingly.
An important update in this release is a new utility that allows the user to see how many connections are current for an existing IP address. This aids network operators in deciding which users on their networks are candidates for a connection limit rule. With all these features, Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator is a great software for any network administrator looking to control their network's bandwidth in an easy and efficient manner.
