Bandwidth Limiting with Cisco 3550 Series Switches

by yasirirfan . Updated 20 years, 6 months ago

Hi every body,

I have a high speed internet connection which is distributed to four users of the IT department, as all of us are from IT department I can’t force them to have a connection from ISA, they r connected directly from the 3550 series switch with real ips, some of them are using software?s like kaaza, bit torrent, bear share for their downloads which is consuming more bandwidth which limits the browsing and download speed, I did tried to limit their bandwidth from their respective interfaces with following command
Interface fast Ethernet 0/1
Bandwidth 1

But no use is there any ways to block those software?s and to limit the bandwidth usage for individual user, as I can use any bandwidth limiting software?s. The only option I have to control them from the switch. So please let me know the solution.

Thanks

Yasir
