Hi,

I see some docs about rate limiting VIF by adding "rate=" in vif parameters.

For example : vif = ['mac=02:00:00:00:06:82,ip=187.32.65.86,rate=128KB/s']

But it doesn't work.
How do you determine that it doesn't work?
Last time I check the rate limit is only one way (upload or download,
forgot which one). And it doesn't exactly limit it to that amount, but
close enough. Try using iperf, alternating between using domU and an
outside host as server.

Well, I only try to download a big iso thought http, with wget.

I will try to upload some data.

Olivier
