Setting maximum bandwidth for a network device

I want to be able to set the maximum bandwidth for eth0 to 30kbs. I want to make sure I can't use more than 50% of the total bandwidth from the shared ISP. Is there a way to do this, as I can't see a way?

OK, that's cool. I forgot to look at tldp.org. Quite a bit or reading there. Thank-you.
