I am fairly sure Squid has the concept of bandwidth pools which you can app=
ly via ACLs within the squid conf.
That may meet your proxy requirements but would not help with traffic not b=
eing proxied. =20

Squid will also allow you to define access to the inet based on ACLs which =
can use various things to determine which policy will be applied to the con=
nection.  eg,  client src IP,  client username,  time of day,  regx=85

you may find it here:
