Limiting bandwidth on a system?

[Mathiau]

Hey all!

I was curious, what is the best method to limit the bandwidth a system can
use.?

a quick low down is that on our network we have one system that is used by
our night support crew, but they tend to use the bandwidth up and makes it
crawl for the other 2 people who are tring to use it.


I was told QoS can be used? If so, how?

What other method can i use that would not involve any additional hardware -
i have a cisco 2501 router but i can not use an rj45 connection into it i do
not beleive and then one out.


So, more or less any method that is built into windows, or is a 3rd party
software that i would install on the system or can use on my system to
control that system ?

thnx ahead of time.

Matt.
