Limiting bandwidth on a cisco 2610

 I am in need of some help..
on a cisco 2610 router i am trying to limit the bandwith of 2 users connected to the ethernet lan

No, you can limit the two users by creating an access-list for either their MAC address or their IP address. Here is the information for configuring rate limiting on a Cisco router.

now that 128000 is in what (bits or bytes)?
That would be expressed in bits per second.
Hi lrmoore,

>access-list 101 permit host 192.168.122.2 any

is the access-list affects only for inbound connections since the 101 is for inbound. as far as i know, generic traffic shaping only affects outbound traffic.

can you explain it further since i also have this kind of problem and i need to limit bandwidth to a specific IP address.

I tried to do "sh ip access-list 101" and i got this result:

Extended IP access list 101
    permit ip host 192.168.1.5 any
    permit ip any host 192.168.1.5 (27527 matches)

the second line match some traffic but im not sure if from inbound or outbound since the access-list is 101.

Thanks in advance.
