Subject: [gentoo-server] tc per-flow traffic shaping?

1 Is it possible to tell tc to perform per-flow traffic shaping?
2
3 The reason is that some of our branch offices must access a Windows
4 Terminal Server, and the traffic flows of these branches seem to be
5 fighting among themselves.
6
7 I want to limit each flow to a guaranteed minimum of 64 kbps, while
8 capping the combined bandwidth to 2048 kbps (at 28 branches, there's
9 still a margin of 256 kbps which the flows can squabble over among
10 themselves).
11
12 Is this possible with TC? If so, which TC modules must I compile/use?
13
14 Thanks in advance
