       niceshaper stop
       niceshaper status|show [--remote ip[:port] --password password]

DESCRIPTION

       NiceShaper  is  a  program working in a Linux router environment.  It uses a proven HTB QOS algorithm. It
       provides dynamic traffic shaping which is more effective than traditional, static shaping.  By constantly
       monitoring  packets  flowing  through  the  router  in  response to changing load dynamically adjusts the
       bandwidth of acting classes to a level enabling the fullest possible usage of a internet access.  At  the
       same  time  does  not  allow  for  creation  of  congestion, ensuring complete convenience of interactive
       services.

       NiceShaper protects each class which use reasonable  amount  of  bandwidth  and  takes  care  of  overall
       download when upload is close to stop up.

OPTIONS

       It's  possible  to  create  an  quite  effective  configuration  using  the example files included in the
