  Do you want to limit amount of bandwidth the tunnel uses, or limit how
much bandwidth is used by a particular stream inside the tunnel.
  (or both)

  Clearly limiting bandwidth before things are encrypted is cheaper than
afterwards.

    Joep> Can you guys help me out?

  Ken has done more of this in the field than I.

    Joep> PS I like CBQ, any comments/requests?

  For fixed rate first hops where no bursting is ever possible, or where
latency is very high (residential-type ADSL), CBQ is just fine.
