similar to: Question about TBF burst parameter

Hi Everyone, This is a simple question but I don''t understand why the below tbf is not working as expected by throttling traffic to 5kbps If I throttle a PC''s traffic using the below when traffic exceeds 5kbps packets start getting dropped (as they should) but all traffic gets dropped. not just the bit over 5kbps. TC="tc add dev ppp0" $TC parent 8001:2 handle 2:

I''m using tc from iproute-2.6.15 with a 2.6.12 kernel. I was testing the effects of the burst parameter in a tbf qdisc. Basically, I was testing this statement from the tc-tbf(8) manpage: "If your buffer is too small, packets may be dropped because more tokens arrive per timer tick than fit in your bucket. The minimum buffer size can be calculated by dividing the rate by HZ."

Hello, I was attempting to throttle egress traffic to a specific rate using a tbf. As a starting point I used an example from the LARTC howto, which goes: tc qdisc add dev eth1 root tbf rate 220kbit latency 50ms burst 1540 I then attempt a large fetch from another machine via wget (~40 megs) and the rate was clamped down to about 12Kbytes/s. As this seemed too much, I gradually increased

Hi All, I read the advanced networking howto and find a useful way to shape my adsl link. is says: "tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root tbf rate 220kbit latency 50ms burst 1500 [...] Change 220kbit to your uplinks *actual* speed, minus a few percent. If you have a really fast modem, raise ''burst'' a bit. " My adsl''s upload brandwidth is about 120 kbits/sec,

I am using tbf to do rate limitation. i set the rate, burst and latency parameters for tbf. but when i start passing data i notice that there is an initial burst and then the rate goes down to the configured level. is this because tbf starts with a full bucket? thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I''m trying to fill a token bucket with enough tokens to burst several gigs of data. However, it doesn''t seem to get any higher than ~3.9GB: >tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 1440kbit latency 50ms \ burst 16000000000 >tc qdisc show dev eth0 qdisc tbf 800b: rate 1440Kbit burst 3908420240b lat 2197.8s A smaller attempt of ~1.6 gigs works just fine: >tc qdisc

Hi all! I just started to experiment with bandwidth management using tbf. I have the folowing problems with token understanding: 1) What unit is token? Is "1 token = 1 byte" ? If this is so, then with rate=0.5mbit and HZ=100 the bucket gets filled with 0,64kb (655 tokens) every 10ms? 2) How much tokens are used for one packet (1500)? 3) And token unrelated question. Does

Probably this is an old question, but i''m not able to find nothing about... So, i''ve just started to play with tc to limit the transfer speed to my hdsl connection. I''m using the tbf and the command # tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 10kbit latency 50ms burst 1000 Then i''ve tried to transfer a big (20 Mbyte) file onto my lan, using ftp and the client

does anyone know a way to shape outgoing/upload traffic per ip? I have a network and i want to limit the upload with 100kbit per user. Ex: 192.168.1.20 ----> 1024kbit-DOWN / 100kbit-UP 192.168.1.21 ----> 1024kbit-DOWN / 100kbit-UP and so on....... Ive tried CBQ and HTB, but couldnt get is right. the only thing that I did in upload bases was: "tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root tbf rate

Hi have set the following tbf tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 0.5mbit \ burst 5kb latency 70ms peakrate 1mbit \ minburst 1540 I want to add a filter so the ip traffic pass from it.. plz help me __________________________________ Yahoo!

Hi everybody, it is my first message here. I tried to browse throughout older posts but I found no immediate answer. I need to change rate of a tbf queue while ip packets are already enqueued by it. If I go: tc qdisc replace|change|link dev eth0 root tbf rate 180kbit burst 1540 limit 15400 as results all enqueued packets seems to disappear. I can see that from a: tc -s qdisc ls dev eth0

I am using tbf to do bandwidth limitation. i found that when i start passing traffic there is a burst and then the rate goes down to what is configured. is this a known issue or do i need to change some parameters? thanks. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?

I thought I had this all worked out, but it seems not. The following tc configuration: tc qdisc del dev ppp0 root 2> /dev/null > /dev/null tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1: tbf rate 120kbit burst 1200 limit 1 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:1 handle 2: prio bands 3 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 2:1 handle 10: sfq perturb 20 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 2:2 handle 20: sfq perturb 20 tc

Hi there, I just started playing around with prioritizing traffic. However I do have some questions left :P I am using the following setup: tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1: prio tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:1 handle 10: sfq tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:2 handle 20: tbf rate 61kbit latency 50ms burst 1540 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:3 handle 30: sfq I use the mangle table of iptables

Hi, Having issues getting a replace command working correctly. The error reported is "RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument" which isn''t descriptive or helpful. The command i''m running is: tc qdisc replace dev ppp0 parent 8001:D handle D: tbf rate 5Kbit burst 5kb latency 70ms The idea being to replace an sfq with handle D and hopefully limit a certain user in my

Hello, i have a server (486sx and 16ram). It gives me this error : NETDEVICE WATCHDOG eth1 : ...timeout. I checked in many places for solutions. Even wrote to this mailinglist. But lately i recived information, that too much upload may mix my adsl modem up. So..... my question is how should my script look while the situation is : eth0 - connected to adsl modem and thus to internet eth1 -

Hi i have found a problem related with tbf and the latency that the tbf calculates.. I have used the following parameters for burst and limit burst 100Kbit limit 500Kbit lat81.8ms burst 6Kbit limit 6Kbit lat 0us burst 200Kbit limit 100Kbit lat 4294.9s As u can see in the 3rd column the latency for 100Kbit burst and 500Kbit limit is 81.8ms but for 200Kbit and limit 100Kbit is 4294.9s!!! How

Hi guys! Im new there, and i havent found yet stories about uplink bandwith limits, and i would like to limit my Exim''s speed, coz its eating my ADSL''s whole uplink. Til now i used the #:~ tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root tbf rate 50kbit latency 50ms burst 1540 command, buts its limiting the whole link:/ I checked the documents on that link:

Dear friends, thanks for the last advices about TBF. After reading the tbf.pdf document I got a better insight of the problems I had trying to limit the bandwith on my testbed with a high resolution. The question I have now is: Would I get an immediatly better resolution result if I change the #define HZ to 1000 for my Linux box? I have a Pentium Celeron 700 MHz, and I would like to see the tbf

Hello Please give advice in selecting suitable QoS Solution for our device. It contains one WAN port and a LAN port(4 port switch). The WAN will be connected to an ADSL modem(so we don`t know the bandwidth in advance for the WAN and depends on the ADSL connection taken). We need to give highest priority to the Voice and control the WAN bandwidth to 2Mbps. I tried with the TBF by giving 500kbps
