Howto limit max total traffic and per ip
-
Currently I using Limiter to cap per IP to 2mbps. I looking for a way to also limit the max bandwidth for all user. This is because I want to reserve some bandwidth for management/server usage.
Sample, 100Mbps line. User can used up to 90Mbps with maximun 2Mbps per IP. How can I achieve this?

If all you want to do is reserve some amount of bandwidth for the server, why just just do that instead of coming in it from the opposite direction and limiting the IPs?
-
I means the bandwidth for the server to update their software and technical people to use the Internet. We have 500Mbps line and I got less than 10Kbps for updating the OS and application. We have around 3000 concurrent users so the bw almost full all the time.

Sounds like a bufferbloat issue. Try enabling CoDel or FairQ?

This what I used for now.. At least I able to update all server software. But this setting, the user will go more than allocated BW (2Mbps) but yes I can control total BW for the user (480Mbps). After update I change to per IP allocation back since its our business rules. User capped at 2Mbps.

Will take a look for both because I never heard any of that.
