I think you'd be best off making pipes for each machine..

I use dummynet pipes at home to limit my TCP traffic to prevent my pings from
going bad when someone downloads or uploads.

eg ->
# Rate limit out going TCP
${fwcmd} pipe 1 config bw 1kbyte/sec queue 10kbytes
${fwcmd} add pipe 1 tcp from any to any out via tun0

# Limit incoming TCP
${fwcmd} pipe 2 config bw 5kbyte/sec queue 10kbytes
${fwcmd} add pipe 2 tcp from any to any in recv tun0
