+# This example shows how a combination of BPF programs can be used to perform
+# per-IP classification and rate limiting. The simulation in this example
+# shows an example where N+M devices are combined and use 1 WAN. Traffic sent
+# from/to the "neighbor" devices have their combined bandwidth capped at
+# 128kbit, and the rest of the traffic can use an additional 1Mbit.
+
+# This works by sharing a map between various tc ingress filters, each with
+# a related set of bpf functions attached. The map stores a list of dynamically
+# learned ip addresses that were seen on the neighbor devices and should be
+# throttled.
