Hi! I want to upgrade hardware on my router (iptables, htb, >1000 users). Now it is based on usual desktop PC (Intel Prescott P4 3.00 Ghz, 1 Gb RAM). The reason of hardware upgrade is growing up number of users, also we are planning to increase upstream link from 100 Mbit/s to 1 Gbit/s. Iptables rules are now optimized with ipset tool, for tc I''m using hash tables as well. So I

Hi, currently I''m using 48 class with htb & very stable Is there any maximum number of class I can create in a single linux box ? I need 500 or even 1000 class for campuss network.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I''ve written a minimal sort of Perl module that dynamically creates and destroys traffic control rules for specific IPs.

Hi All, I am using the script below to limit download rates and manage traffic for a certain IP address and testing the results using iperf. The rate that iperf reports is much higher than the rate I have configured for the HTB qdisc. It''s probably just some newbie trap that''s messing things up but I''m buggered if I can see it. The following script is run on the

Hello, I am trying to make a load balance at my box using two conections. I have compile my kernel with this patch routes-2.6.13-12.diff (tha I get from this website: http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/~julian/#routes). The problem is that when I try to balance using weight sintaxe (i will put the script bellow) some conectios just drop. So I can enter some pages but other I could not...

I''m in the process of replacing a Novell server that had a single NIC and routed traffic from our local network to either the Internet or to the Corporate office.

It uses a different IP for Samba than for the DNS/DHCP and routing (different VMs in

Hello What I''m looking for is how to configure the Linux QoS module to do global rate limitation for two (or more) 802.1q pseudo network devices. I naturally suppose there is a possibility with IFB. I don''t want to use IMQ because it''s not integrated to my kernel v2.6.21.1 and I didn''t find IMQ patches for it nor for the iptables package I use (v1.3.7).

Does anyone have experience with using HTB to shape traffic for several thousands of users, each with a class of their own? The LARTC HOWTO has a section about setting up hashed filters to deal with "many" classes. Has anyone used that setup? -- ams

Hi, I am after a feel of the throughput capabilities for TC and Iptables in comparison to dedicated hardware. I have heard talk about 1Gb+ throughput with minimal performance impact using 50ish TC rules and 100+ Iptables rules. Is there anyone here running large throughput / large configurations, and if so, what sort of figures? Regards Dan
