trickle VS wondershaper

This method could apply to other tools with the same IPv4/IPv6 behaviour, without further modification. Changing the behaviour in the utility directly would only fix it for that one utility meaning that to fix another you need to do the same work again. It is perhaps also safer than modifying such a core component as SSH: if you introduce a bug the trick can be easily disabled until fixed, if you accidentally break SSH you might cause yourself significantly more hassle.

> This sort of negates that advantage

LD_PRELOAD trickery doesn't negate the advantage of having full source access, patching SSH would also have been a perfectly valid option, but is perhaps a better tool for this particular job.

For another use of the trick see https://github.com/mariusae/trickle (the project looks stale, though that may be because it is properly done and there have been no security/other bugs to fix in recent history) which slips its own functions in the call chain to apply user controlled (rather than firewall/routing level) throughput shaping to utilities that don't offer it out of the box.

Have you tried Trickle?

Assuming you're on Linux you could use something like Trickle: https://github.com/mariusae/trickle

install trickle

this article will help you limit your network bandwidth using wondershaper tool !!

Yes, you can do this via Wondershaper (https://github.com/magnific0/wondershaper) for example: https://vitux.com/how-to-limit-network-bandwidth-in-ubuntu/

I’d like to play with the device’s bandwidth for debugging purposes. I saw wondershaper but it seems to have issues on Jetsons.

For super simplification (bandwidth + shaping) wondershaper has a wrapper script - https://github.com/magnific0/wondershaper/ tc has a lot of depth to it depending on what you are trying to accomplish, unfortunately besides going through the man page and trying stuff I don't really have anything else to give you.

To quote from the readme:

You better never try something like the wondershaper with ifconfig ...
