SSHFS Bandwidth Rate Limit

This script will allow you to control the rate at which an SSHFS client uploads data to a remote server.

#!/bin/bash

# Replace these variables with desired values
DEV=eth0
DEV_MAX=1Gbit
SSH_UPLOAD=5Mbit
SERVER_IP=10.1.2.3/32
SERVER_PORT=22

tc qdisc del dev $DEV root
tc qdisc add dev $DEV root handle 1: htb default 10
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:5 htb rate $DEV_MAX
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:5 classid 1:10 htb rate 128kbit ceil $DEV_MAX
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:5 classid 1:20 htb rate 128kbit ceil $SSH_UPLOAD
tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:10 handle 10: sfq
tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:20 handle 20: sfq
tc filter add dev $DEV parent 1: protocol ip prio 5 u32 match ip dst $SERVER_IP match ip dport $SERVER_PORT 0xffff classid 1:20

I'm not yet an expert in tc as of this writing, so more to come, maybe.
