I'm using openSUSE 11.1 and I'm trying to find a way to restrict the bandwidth.And I have to do this via Iproute2/Iptables.How do I should simulate my network with VMWare? In fact I want to use one of one machines as a router and send packets from one machine to another via this router. and which software is suitable to do this?
You can create virtual networks with VMWare and install a firewall/router that has a network card in all the virtual networks you create. I did this once with success. If you also have a network switch with VLAN capabilites, you can also create virtual VMWare networks that are associated with a given VLAN. This is more difficult to get working.
I use pfsense as firewall. This has QoS capabilities to control your network and also works on vmware server.
