BQOS bandwidth management

What is bqos ?

bqos is an easy QOS (Quality Of Service) management perl script. It is
based on Curses and Iproute2.

Managing bandwidth on a linux gateway is a long and fastidious task. bqos
bordned with the need of making this task quicker and easier.

There are different ways to manage bandwidth with bqos:

	- First It is possible to associate a certain type of traffic with a
	  cetain part of the bandwith. Then, it is possible to give a
          maximum or a minimum rate to a computer or to a certain
          service.

	- It is also possible to give a priority to specific services
	  (using known ports). This is very usefull if you have a link that
	  is 100% used and you want to use something interactive (like
	  telnet or ssh). If you give a highter priority to this services,
	  you will get a better response time.
