For real, Bw. Thuo.
I never got to use these for b/width management. Let me install and take a look.

Bullut,
So you are telling me that Cacti and Solarwinds are/have applications that *manage* bandwidth?? All these years I thought those were only for monitoring bandwidth utilization and that *manage*ment requires some hardware/software combo.
Rotich, you can use *pfSense* to manage bandwidth. You install it on a hardware with at least two NICs and place it strategically on your network so that all traffic is passed through it. You of course need to configure the *management* bit yourself. pfSense is Free. You can also buy a pfSense appliance if you don't need to install it yourself.
Another option is one of the many *Mikrotik* routerboards available. You choose one that matches your needs and then configure it - or pay someone else to configure it for you.
I only gave you the cheaper options. I know some very expensive options but given that I don't know exactly what you have and what you'd like to achieve in the real sense, that is my 0.000000011 Bitcoins worth of contrib.

Depends on your budget. If your organization has the financial muscle, consider *Solarwinds. <http://www.solarwinds.com/>* If open-source is your cup of tea, try *Cacti. <http://www.cacti.net/>*
