Check these two URL:
http://defiant.coinet.com/iproute2/
http://www.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb
The first carries some documentation of all kind related to traffic
control in general, and the Linux implementation in particular. The
second, is the home page of "HTB Linux queuing discipline", by Martin
Devera. It contains a detailed example (very thoroughly explained and with
test results) of bandwidth limiting with Linux traffic control
implementation.
It doesn't explain tc in general, but applied to a certain queuing
discipline. However, with this information is just a matter of guessing the
options for the rest of queuing disiplines to get it working. For example:
tc qdisc add cbq help
shows a brief report of CBQ's available parameters.
It would be nice to have a "drag-and-drop" interface over tc to build
traffic shaping boxes in 5 minutes and make $$$$ fast :)
