Ive got some issues with traffic shaping, I assume Im just missing
something stupid but cant seem to find the issue. Im hoping some kind
person can point out the obvious



Ive reviewed: Configuring Generic Traffic Shaping

Heres my network layout:

h1 (10.0.0.3 / 0017.0830.cb00) ---|
|
h2 (10.0.0.4) -------------------------|------ (f0/0) r1 (e1/0)
-------- (10.0.0.1) r2 ------- internet
|
h2 (10.0.0.5) -------------------------|



i need to shape in and out bound traffic for various hosts
independantly (ie h1, h2, h3). i also need to do this with a bridge
since i dont want to create any more confusion than needed by fooling
with more subnets, consuming extra addresses, or nat. i have a spare
router (r1) which is:

bw_throttle>sh ver
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software
IOS (tm) 3600 Software (C3620-IS-M), Version 12.3(17), RELEASE
SOFTWARE (fc2)

and has the following relevant config:

no ip routing
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
no ip address
traffic-shape group 1 500000 18000 18000 1000
traffic-shape group 700 500000 18000 18000 1000
bridge-group 1
!
interface Ethernet1/0
no ip address
traffic-shape group 1 500000 18000 18000 1000
traffic-shape group 700 500000 18000 18000 1000
bridge-group 1
!
access-list 1 permit 10.0.0.3
access-list 700 permit 0017.0830.cb00
!
bridge 1 protocol ieee




this doesn't shape traffic to the expected 500kbps for h1; the only
way i can seem to shape any traffic is with something like the
following on both interfaces

traffic-shape rate 500000 18000 18000 1000

unfortunately this is not what i need; i instead need to shape traffic
for specific hosts, preferably specifiying those hosts by ip address,
not mac address, but at this point ill take whatever i can get
