Good Day! I was interested with a question what exactly is considered in overlimits parameter to count of statistics. I thought, that this parameter should specify number of the packages which have exceeded valid boundary. But, for example statistics on one of queues: class cbq 20:12 parent 20:10 leaf 8015: rate 128Kbit (bounded) prio 5 Sent 23171746615 bytes 43153460 pkts (dropped 81179, overlimits 641814686) backlog 1p Queue has passed 43153460 packets, but has exceeded a valid level of 641814686 packets. What it? Errors? -- Igor _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/

But don''t believe this too much. It depends on how often the qdisc looked for packet. This counter is incremented per unsucessfull DRR loop and it''s possible that this happens more then once per packet. Each dropped packet is overlimited.> class cbq 20:12 parent 20:10 leaf 8015: rate 128Kbit (bounded) prio 5 > Sent 23171746615 bytes 43153460 pkts (dropped 81179, overlimits 641814686) > backlog 1p > > Queue has passed 43153460 packets, but has > exceeded a valid level of 641814686 packets. > What it?

Thus this parameter is really useless? I have paid attention, that at speed of passinge of packages approximately 40 pps growth rate of this parameter about (near) 150000 pps. -- Igor _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
