** Help REQ: Rate Limiting on Virtual Interfaces

I have a Redhat 9 box with 2 NICS - eth0 & eth1. Both NICs are
100mbit.

I have the following IP addresses on eth1:

192.168.10.1/24
10.10.10.1/24
172.18.10.1/24


I would like to simulate a WAN environment between these 3 virtual IP
addresses (each IP is the default gateway for 2 computers).

The routing is working great between the 3 IP addresses.

How can I limit the bandwidth used for each IP (and the machines
behind each IP address). If I cannot limit the bandwidth, can I limit
the bandwidth for the entire ethernet device?

Ideally, I would like to have computers on all 3 interfaces talking to
each other at 512kbps maximum.


TIA!!!!!
