I am really curious how loaded (current and average upload/download speed) is your network and how fast connection you have. (This question is more for more networked enviroments rather than single users). We just bought 8mbit/s line and the load wont get higher than 200KB/s (~1.6Mbit/s) (according to MRTG) There are ~250 users using this line. (shaped from 32kbit/s to 2mbit/s) I am using MRTG to measure the load. I though MRTG has gone crazy showing 200KB/s so i decided to download large amount of data. And no, the mrtg was right, i was downloading at 600KB/s and MRTG showed the same. I am confused how it is possible.

You need to ensure that you are downloading from a server capable of serving 8Mbits (most are not). In the continental USA I use gatekeeper.dec.com, which is very lightly loaded (nobody remembers it these days) and has at least an OC-3 connection. I have seen 40Mbits/s via FTP from this machine. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
We are running with an 8 Mbit WAN link and are using wrr to shape the traffic between 800 users. This works fine and all the bandwith are en use most of the time. Please supply some more details of your configuration, if you want more help. -- Morten Isaksen misak@aub.dk - http://www.aub.dk/~misak> -----Original Message----- > From: lartc-admin@mailman.ds9a.nl [mailto:lartc-admin@mailman.ds9a.nl]On> Behalf Of lartc@e-apollo.lv > Sent: 9. december 2002 21:24 > To: LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl > Subject: [LARTC] Bandwidth > > I am really curious how loaded (current and average upload/downloadspeed)> is your network > and how fast connection you have. > (This question is more for more networked enviroments rather thansingle> users). > > We just bought 8mbit/s line and the load wont get higher than 200KB/s > (~1.6Mbit/s) (according > to MRTG) > There are ~250 users using this line.

(Like the example in the wrr-package?) 3. Are there any latency-problems? 4. What measures has been taken to ensure low latency? <SNIP> _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/

We do have 2 1 Mbit ADSL lines also, but they are only used for P2P traffic (like Kazaa, Napster, ..).> 2. Hows the tc configuration? (Like the example in the wrr-package?)I have used the standard script in the wrr package, with some minor changes like changed ..cbq bandwidth 10Mbit.. to .. cbq bandwidth 100Mbit..> 3. Are there any latency-problems? > 4. What measures has been taken to ensure low latency?Right now our WAN link is at 96% and I have a latency about 10 ms to a server 8 hops away (through the Danish DIX). So no, we don''t have any latency problems. -- Morten Isaksen misak@aub.dk - http://www.aub.dk/~misak _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
