Ok here is my problem. We have a T1 on serial 0/0, I have configured outbound traffic shaping policies and they work very well.

However, I need to queue/shape inbound traffic. In other words, if one person fired up an ftp client, they get max bandwidth.. It poses a problem for all other office workers..

I have always been told you cannot shape a packet that has already arrived on the interface. But many of you guys are way way smarter then I when it comes to this stuff..

My end goal, define a policy with a % of our total bandwidth based on a few ports.. Alloting the rest for outbound stuff (be it email, web requests.. whatever)

Is this possible? And if so, can someone give me a example?

I know I can rate limit inbound, but dropping packets will break ftp clients AFAIK..

TY all in advance

Simple, the traffic has to go back out some interface, so do the shaping on that outbound interface.
