WIreGuard on embedded devices and traffic shaping question.

Hey Joe,

Sorry for the late reply. There was a conference and then a small trip
after, and now I'm catching up on the backlog.

I'd certainly be interested in some sort of blog write-up. The more
documentation and tutorials, the better, IMHO.

The traffic shaping with WireGuard is the same trafic shaping found in
the rest of the Linux kernel -- the qdisc and tc subsystem. I think
you can use the usual techniques there for applying shaping to the
entire interface or selectively to certain flows.

I believe it can be using exactly that idea.
