General Information
Summary
This manual section describes techniques needed to control traffic from peer-to-peer (P2P)
networks. Peer-to-peer is a concept whereby one individual host directly communicates with
another, as opposed to each client referring to a common hub or server. This type of network
connection allows users to share various information, including audio and video files and
application programs. Uncontrolled P2P connections take all the available bandwith and left no
space for other activities (like mail or HTTP browsing).
