Time shaping traffic luci-app-sqm sqm-qos
Can the ability be added to shape traffic based on a time principal.
In my use case I want to restrict traffic on a specific interface when a backup is being sent from one site to another. I also wish to limit the trafic speed during homework time to make streaming media sites not work for our children.
manually setting this via luci works well but ulitimatly being able to configure trafic shaping with a time component from luci would be very helpfull and simplify configuration.
I wish to restore the shaping back to that interface out side of the backup period.
Does the underlying sqm-scripts package supports this? If not, it needs to be added there, first. LuCI merely exposes the configuration settings and runtime information.
No it does not support this and the maintainer said it was out side the scope of a simple script.
His suggestion was to use a cronjob to to run a script with commands to change the rules as the user needed.
It would be cool if one could enable or disable based on time patterns for traffic shaping much like it is done with the firewall all from luci/
I guess moving it from a simple script to something more advanced ?
