Hi Folks, I''m using a 2.4.x kernel and TC from the iproute2 package so that I can limit traffic through my gateway. I''m using this to mark packets when they leave the LAN: /sbin/ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0 -m 1 When the packets return, I need to have them marked again so that the ingress filter will limit the bandwidth in the opposite

The HOWTO mentions 3 seperate bands for the simple pfifo_fast queue, how do I need to specify which band each packet needs to be in? Do I only need to set the correct TOS field or is there anything else I should do? Thanks. Tung

Some (non urgent) questions about "tc" parameters: What is "weight" for? We''ve seen that leaving it out of our script causes error/warnings like: CQB: class 00010012 had bad quantum==0, repaired. Which values should it have and why? When should one use the "split" and "defmap" parameters? I guess they can be used to specify the best effort
