similar to: has anyone tried adsl-optmizer kernel patches for dsl modems?

I have been trying to optimise my ADSL connections for VOIP. Funny things were happening - for example increasing the ping packet size by 50% had no effect, but then adding one byte had a major effect. It took me a while to figure out that I was seeing the effects of the fixed ATM cell size. This is probably obvious to some of you. For the rest: ADSL uses ATM as its transport. An ATM

Hi. there is a way to MARK udp VOIP (SIP) traffic, in order to put in a highest prio class ? Traffic flow seems start on udp 5060 port, but next both server and client seems jump to a random(?) port. I can''t use CONNMARK because is udp traffic. I only see a pattern for L7 patch in order to SIP traffic identification , but I run 2.4 kernel series . When you patch 2.4 kernel with

Hello, i have a htb setup where the root and (nearly) all child classes has a ceil rate with max up from my adsl line. But the root class don''t reach the ceil value but some childs are get a huge backlog. My setup: (tc -d class show dev ppp0) [cleaned a bit] ******************************************************** class htb 1:1 root rate 576000bit ceil 576000bit burst 30Kb/8 cburst

Hi, I''ve written a small javascript ADSL throughput calculator: http://nukunuku.yamamaya.is-a-geek.org/~ranma/adsl.html Feel free to submit alternative presets (I currently have presets for three german telecom speed variants: T-DSL (1000|2000|3000), derived from http://www2.lancom.de/kb.nsf/5d445c701b3ff52dc1256e7700297e5c/27c6ee1c3e3f74b0c1256e94004a433e?OpenDocument).

Hi. I wrote in a reply to a mail on here recently that you can''t set mpu (minimum packet unit) on HTB as you can on CBQ. I''ve just noticed that there is a patch on devik''s site which does mpu and overhead. http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/ For dsl users mpu is, for practical purposes going to be 106 - overhead is still variable though, depending on packet size.

Guys Considering the festive season is upon us, thanks to everyone contributing to the list and helping all the readers with your great input! I don''t want to mention names, I''ll most certainly leave someone out. With this mail I''d like to test some theory on bandwidth management, with my own successes and failures during the past year. Sharing a link between 200

Hi, I use the patch (http://ace-host.stuart.id.au/russell/files/tc/tc-atm/) for accurate the packet scheduling on ATM/ADSL link and i think I''ve found a bug. I tried to write to the author but he didn''t answer me. I work on a Linux 2.6.17 with the iproute2-2.6.18-061002 package. I change the type of the cell_align char to short of the struct tc_ratespec in the file pkt_sched.h

Hi all, I have a script that allocates an ADSL(1500K/256K) bandwidth to three users. My idea is to allow each user having a guarentee rate, while each one is allowed to burst to the max rate while no one is using the bandwidth. I use imq0 for uplink (for some mobility reason) and imq1 for downlink. Everything works smoothly except for VoIP traffic. There are three VoIP phones attached to a

I know there is that handy patch available to very efficiently use ATM bandwidth, but I was wondering what the best values to use with a non-patched iproute2 would be. Anyone here care to check my logic in coming up with these numbers and perhaps suggest better values? My transmit speed is 768kbps per ADSL line (I have two). This is the HTB shaping I do on the interface (logic used for this

What''s going on here? I''m spewing UDP traffic at this thing, and it is exceeding the ceil.

Hi all, I''ve done a search through the archives but I can''t find a cause/solution to this. I''m running a FC4 box with the stock 2.6.12 kernel and a FC2 box with a stock 2.6.9 kernel. I''m obviously using iproute2 and the patched tc. When I clear down the qdiscs with "tc qdisc del dev <DEV> root" I get the following in response to "tc

I''m trying to setup traffic shaping on my linux gateway/router. The system has 3 interfaces: eth0 - My LAN - with IP address 192.168.0.254 eth1 - The ethernet connection to which my ADSL modem is connected. This has a 10.25.x.x IP, more on this later. The ADSL link has an upstream of ~1.2mbit. ppp0 - The PPP connection which is my WAN connection, with a real world IP. The system acts

I have a Cable ''modem'' that has a problem that many of these devices is bound to have. I was wondering what other lartc user thought about this and if DSL has simular problems. Cable, being Asymetrical, is able to upload at a given rate and hopefully has a buffer, in the modem, of some kind. When I nc(netcat) to a UDP echo, or discard, server I get about 10Mbps out on my

Hi all, I have an average 2mbit multicast stream that once in a while bursts high (up to 20mbit/s) in short periods (about 200ms). Could anyone please help me with directions using tc for configuing leaky bucket shaping to this stream? I have a 5mbit/s ceiling. My system is running gentoo linux 2.6.14, and I have compiled in all QoS modules. Thanks. Oivind

Hi, One of my customer needs per flow rate control, so I write one. The code I post here is not finished, but it seems to work as expected. The kernel patch is agains kernel 2.6.11, the iproute2 patch is against iproute2-2.6.11-050314. I write the code in a hurry to meet deadline. There are many other things to do ahead for me. The code is written in 2 days (including read other

Hi everyone. I''m new to this list and I have some questions regarding HTB class. I was trying to see how tc sets the parameters for HTB, but really couldnt understand them. So, I thought that I might ask the wizards. It''s mainly from the source code. 1. What is the cell_log ? (its everywhere in the code) 2. Why does htb calculate its burst(buffer) with tc_xmit_time() ? Is

Hi Couple months ago I started to have a strange problem with HTB. My setup is Fedora Core 2 + Pentium 2 233 + 128 MB of ram and its serving as a router. For some time since going to kernel 2.6 my HTB QoS Stalls for couple seconds, every couple minutes. If the connection load is bigger the stalling is more frequent and takes longer. I isolated the problem to be with HTB (CBQ works fine). The

Hey list I have almost gotten my shaping setup up and running as planned. The last barrier seems to be tcp overshooting availible bandwidth when its starting a transfer, and thereby bursting the line, so ping rises for a moment. At least this is my best guess at the problem :) There is a possibility that its just plain old traffic being bursty for some reason.. I am using bittorrent to test this,

Hi Here is something that worked with with 2.6.10-1.771_FC2smp and stopped working when I upgraded to 2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp. These are fedora kernels and the network controller is an Intel Gbit (e1000) running a 100 Mbps Full Duplex. Don''t know how or if this matters but the 2.6.10 kernel has CONFIG_X86_HZ=1000 and the 2.6.16 has CONFIG_HZ=250 The idea is to just shape to , say 2Mbit, a
