The Linux kernel has a feature called the "traffic shaper"
which can limit outbound bandwidth utilization for specific
interfaces and sub-interfaces (IP aliases).
I've referred to it a couple times in my Linux Gazette
"Answer Guy" column --- so you could search for those
notes at http://www.linuxgazette.com. You could also
read it in the kernel's own source tree in:
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/shaper.txt
