Since right now there is no way to specify a percentage of the total bandwidth
on a link for a flow, what is the best way to gauge the effective bandwidth in
absolute terms, and then emulate bandwidth distribution by percentage for flows
?
For example, if I could figure out that the effective network bandwidth for a
link is 50Mbps, and I want to create 2 flows on it, each of equal priority, then
I would give them a max bandwidth of 25Mbps each. The motto is to not let the
user bother about using absolute numbers for bandwidth control. He just
specifies a % for the flow, and we are somehow able to map that onto an absolute
number.
Hope I got the question thru..
