Pol-IP is a traffic control software designed for Linux NAT box and can be used on clients of different platforms. It is an all-in-one solution for network traffic management.
Pol-IP is a traffic control system designed for Linux NAT box that supports multi-platform clients. It's a complete solution with a user-friendly wizard that allows you to easily configure the system. With Pol-IP, you can add, delete, and change clients or group bandwidth using a hierarchical structure. Moreover, clients receive detailed statistics regarding their actual speed and bandwidth.
Polipd, on the other hand, is a server application that runs on a masquerading server. It has two essential features. Firstly, it configures the Traffic Control functions in the kernel 2.4 series. Secondly, it maintains a statistics service of the clients' bandwidths on a multicast address. Clients can access these statistics through the multicast address and view them using a progress bar.
The software comes with several scripts for Redhat services in /ini.d-scripts and a polip.conf.sample file in /config. To compile the software, you'll need newt, newt-devel, slang, and slang-devel that you can obtain from Rpmfind.net. The compilation process is straightforward; you simply need to execute 'make clean' followed by 'make' and 'make install.'
In summary, Pol-IP is an easy-to-use yet comprehensive traffic control system that provides users with detailed bandwidth statistics. It's suitable for Linux NAT boxes and supports multiple platforms. The software is easy to install and use, making it an ideal solution for network administrators.
