Hi all and Stef i been working with TC to get of the setup to make my network stable with Quality i was testing with my PC, limit rate and Ceil rate are same when i try to upload and download the data from my test FTP Server my setuup looks like this MyIP----Crosscable--eth1(Bridge(br0)eth0---Switch--FtpServer | | --------------G/W Router----Internet 1. iam able to achive the data control while iam upload the data from myip to ftp Server, and same back 2. but i get lot of latency while iam upload the data or downloading the data like 1000ms 3. when there is no data transfer the latency is 2ms 4. when iam upload or downloading the data, when i try to retrive pop access, i get message from out look express wait, until i complete my upload and download i keep getting wait, once its finished, then iam able to get all the mails which is pending in my box 5. but iam looking for good latency, 6. i have several kind of clients in the network, where iam looking to control up+down b/w ( since IMQ is not working with me for total B/W) 7. iam looking to give to the customer raw 64kbps or 128kbps.... do i need to shape the traffic while iam giving them RAW 8. what is the best ways to do the shaping id required, i just use SFQ, for the classid to check my script is below for test setup thanks hare CEIL=1024 IFACE=eth0 NFACE=eth1 LANIP=x.x.x.9 echo " flushing all tables and QoS settings .......!
