I like to control the network bandwidth of each process/app on my linux, both ways (download, and upload), as well as my pc overall bandwidth. is that achievable on Linux ? Thanks

You can control that using TC, also add latency and packet loss if you want. It’s really powerful, although a bit difficult to learn.
hopefully its not cli, but if it is and it fullfills my needs i ll probably have to learn how to use it

90% of the more advanced Linux tools - they’re what make the platform so great in my opinion, but the usability tends to get in the way of the full potential

Portmaster might do something like that but i haven’t used it in a while.
i ll give it a look, thanks

You want to do this on a specific machine and not across your network? QoS rules are usually applied at a router or managed switch. I’ve done something like this for troubleshooting a specific network condition with a local proxy before, but never for everything running on a machine.
