LARTC - Mar 2002 - New User

Hello,
 

 
I am a new user of iproute tool and would like some help to start some 
experiments !!!
 

 
My computer run linux Debian with 2.2.19 kernel and iproute package
 

 
I have 2 routers with package queue an shapping by diffserv and rsvp
 

 
For now I woul like to install iproute2 + tc in my machine
 

 
I have some daults about that:
 

 
Can I use the original Debian Package for queue implamantation ?
 

 
With iproute 2 +tc I have to recompile the kernel ? Whats the best version 
to do that ?
 

 
What kind of experiments I can do ?
 

 
Could I use the linux like a router with QoS implementation ?
 

 
I am a kkind of new user of these tools, so I have a lot of questions
 

 
Thank you a lot
