Hi, list members.
I''ve been reading a lot about traffic control because
at work we have the following configuration......
LINUX
BOX
_____
100 mbit | |
LAN1--------------|eth0 |
| | 2 mbit SDSL
| eth1|-------------------INTERNET
100 mbit | |
LAN2--------------|eth2 |
| |
-------
The linux box (REDHAT 9-2.4.20-30.9) acts as a firewall-NAT
solution for both internal networks.
Also the linux acts as SMTP gateway (or redirector) for two
different domains handled by mail servers on each internal LAN.
SQUID is on the linux too and serves LAN1 requests.
I have to manage the bandwidth of our Internet connection so LAN1 gets 1.5
mbit
to serve Windows 2000 terminal server for outside clients, Web requests and
SMTP.
Also web navigation from internal clients.
LAN2 gets 512 kbit for SMTP and Web navigation.
So I''m really messed up with the direction of the traffic control
("you can
only shape your outgoing traffic")
and which discipline should I use.
If you can help here I would really appreciate it.
ATTE.

Hi! Since I have been playing with a similar setup in the last few weeks, I''ll try and answer your question. But be aware that I am a newbie myself. You have outgoing traffic on all those interfaces: Traffic that comes from the Internet to Lan1 or Lan2 is INCOMING traffic on eth1 but it is OUTGOING traffic on eth0 and eth2! So you can shape your "download from the Internet traffic" on those two interfaces. The traffic going to the Internet is outgoing on eth1, so you can shape it there. Which would be best to use, I am to new to say. I am using htb and it seems to work fine. All the best, .peter> LINUX > BOX > _____ > 100 mbit | | > LAN1--------------|eth0 | > | | 2 mbit SDSL > | eth1|-------------------INTERNET > 100 mbit | | > LAN2--------------|eth2 | > | | > ------- > > So I''m really messed up with the direction of the traffic control ("you can > only shape your outgoing traffic") > and which discipline should I use._______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
