TC limiting : Helps to set maximum upload/download speed limit to your linux server/pc's selected network interface.
#!/bin/bash
# Full path to tc binary
TC=$(which tc)
#
# NETWORK CONFIGURATION
# interface - name of your interface device
# interface_speed - speed in mbit of your $interface
# ip - IP address of your server, change this if you don't want to use
# the default catch all filters.
#
interface=eth0
interface_speed=100mbit
ip=4.1.2.3 # The IP address bound to the interface
# Define the upload and download speed limit, follow units can be
# passed as a parameter:
# kbps: Kilobytes per second
# mbps: Megabytes per second
# kbit: kilobits per second
# mbit: megabits per second
# bps: Bytes per second
download_limit=512kbit
