I have a 2621 with a T1 circuit that is being used by multiple customers. What I would like to do (for the sake of saving bandwidth), is limit each individual customer's upload speed (all traffic types) to 256K if possible. I DONT want to take down the speed of the actual circuit itself, I just want to limit the speed each user can access it....for ALL traffic types.
Unfortunately, the addresses of each customer are all dynamic. They will have a different IP address pretty much every time the sign on. I figured that since I just want to limit everyone's bandwidth to the same exact value (256K), and since everyone will be on the same subnet (192.168.0.x) - this can be done.
What would be the most efficient way to do this? Traffic shaping? Traffic policing? I dont want any excess packets dropped (rather queued), so my guess would be shaping. I heard that shaping does more damage to the overall performance of the router however. Anyways, this is what I think should work (using GTS)....
Router(config)# interface serial0
Router(config-if)# traffic-shape rate bit-rate 256000
Is that the best solution? I would like to keep it simple if possible, considering this is on a 2621. Thanks for the help....
