I''ve been looking for descriptions of qdisc parameter "estimator" and u32 parameter "police" (defined by POLICE_SPEC), but in vain. I hope someone on this list can explain these. Thank you!

I find that POLICE_SPEC (term from tc command syntax, not found in the HOWTO) isn''t very well or perhaps clearly documented. I figure the first page you sent is trying to say is that the syntax is more or less: POLICE_SPEC = police [buffer [buffer] | maxburst [maxburst]] [mtu [mtu] | minburst [minburst]] [mpu [mpu]] [rate [rate]] (continue | drop | pass | reclassify) However, the examples you sent are using parameter "burst" not listed above. A novice as myself can find learning Linux traffic control a bit confusing with this kind of discrepancies between the HOWTO, the command syntax and the man pages.>I''m not sure where examples are of ''estimator'' usage.If someone else here knows, please do tell.
