Hello there, I have been reading a lot of things regarding tc and diffserv but I''m little confused. I want to control traffic over my DSL connection. I would like to have different kind of services. First of all I would want that any machine behind my linux box can use all the downstream bandwidth onless there are no traffic for other machines. Also I would like to make that the traffic from some nets have a high priority, and everything else low priority. Alse I would like to set some machine behind my linux box to have high priority. Any ideas? or point on how tos or examples? Thank you very much Carlos del Castillo capc75 at mac dot com

Not so difficult :) I wrote some docs/scripts, you can find them on http://www.docum.org/ Stef -- stef.coene@docum.org "Using Linux as bandwidth manager" http://www.docum.org/ #lartc @ irc.openprojects.net
Thanks, I have read your docs and found the link to wonder shaper. As I
understood I can give preference to some outgoing traffic. And with the
ingress qdisc I can avoid the remote queue on my ISP.
But how can I make that some incoming traffic have some preference than
other. For example, if I''m downloading something from my company server
I want that this traffic comes first than an anonymous ftp. After I have
finished downloading something from my company server I want that the
ftp uses the available bandwidth. Or by internals IP''s I want that the
traffic downloading to my laptop computer to have preference than the
one going to my desktop PC.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

What do you mean with high prioriy? Higher bandwidth ?

Otherwise you could try imq (please wait until its stable) at devik.cdi.cz/~patrick/~imq bye, patrick

And with the > ingress qdisc I can avoid the remote queue on my ISP.The ingress qdisc can not so shape as powerfull as you can do with the outgoing bandwidth. But if you have a box between the internet and your LAN and there is only internet traffic (typical a linux firewall :), you can shape on both NIC''s. So the incoming traffic of the internet NIC can be shaped as outgoing bandwidth on the LAN- NIC.> But how can I make that some incoming traffic have some preference than > other.

When you are not downloading, the rest gets 100% (and vice versa). But as soon you start a download, you will get 80% of the bandwidth.
