config SHAPER
        tristate "Traffic Shaper (EXPERIMENTAL)"
        depends on NETDEVICES && EXPERIMENTAL
        ---help---
          The traffic shaper is a virtual network device that allows you to
          limit the rate of outgoing data flow over some other network device.
          The traffic that you want to slow down can then be routed through
          these virtual devices. See
          <file:Documentation/networking/shaper.txt> for more information.

          An alternative to this traffic shaper is the experimental
          Class-Based Queueing (CBQ) scheduling support which you get if you
          say Y to "QoS and/or fair queueing" above.

          To set up and configure shaper devices, you need the shapecfg
          program, available from <ftp://shadow.cabi.net/pub/Linux/> in the
          shaper package.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
          will be called shaper.  If unsure, say N.
