Hello there, Can someone please explain why do one neeed IMQ ? I can already shape incoming traffic on my nat router by creating qdiscs on LAN-side interface. I have done some tests, whith simple bandwidth limmiting, and it works. I''ve read just about all the stuff on www.linuximq.net ... but couldn''t make myself an ideea on why would someone need IMQ for ingress policing ...

helo again. I think this question i am asking is worth: we know that pppoe-server creates a pppX device on each connection done to it. So, when i have to shape, i have to shape each pppX connection device on itself alone. What i know is that the borrowing method on one device by itself, e.g. ppp0, alone using HTB or the like. this means that i have to create for another device, e.g. ppp1,

No I did not. Do I have to compile it? Can you give me more info what to do?

Hello there, Can anyone help me with a problem i have.... I have an ethernet LAN, made over dumb fast-ethernet switches (10/100mbit) without management, so there is no IP for the switches. What I want, if possible, is to find out if a switch is down or not. It''s like with routers... if you want to find out if a router is OK, either you send ICMP directly to the router, or to a host

So after trying to ping you should have an entry in your ARP

Guys After reading through the archives I found some insightful ways to be able to shape traffic to pppoe clients from the server. I have two questions on the topic of setting up a pppoe server however... 1. The clients will all be connected to each other using a normal ethernet network, the segments connected with managed switches. The capacity is roughly 500 nodes. Will these pppoe sessions

Hi all, I am trying to install the PPPoe server rp-pppoe-3.8 from Roaring penguin on centos PC (Centos 4.3, Kernel release 2.6.9-34.EL) but not able to start it. When I start it it gives the error-- /etc/rc.d/init.d/pppoe status pppoe-status: Link is down (can't read pppd PID file /var/run/pppoe.conf-pppoe.pid.pppd) ror - /etc/rc.d/init.d/pppoe start Bringing up PPPoE

Hi. I am trying to setup my firewall in DomU. However, I have got a little problem. My pon dsl-provider exits with following message. Nov 18 09:44:40 alsfw01 pppd[1723]: Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded.

Please point me in the right direction.... My ISP is giving me an IPv6 prefix, but to get that I have to: The current Speedstream ADSL router will be configured as a bridge. I will have to set up a Linux (read Centos, I hope) router that will connect ethernet to the Speedstream but run PPPoE to his network and get both the IPv4 and IPv6 route delegations. There is no easy way that I know of

I need some suggestions, I want to limit the up and down bandwidth of PPPoE users that are terminated on a Linux router (kernel 2.6). What are my options, can I apply tbf qdisc on a ppp interface? That would limit the download, what about the upload? Any suggestions are welcome. -- damjan | дамјан This is my jabber ID --> damjan@bagra.net.mk <-- not my mail address!!!

Hi, we are currently using pppd to connect to the net through pppoe. Some providers seem to propose ipoe instead of pppoe and I cannot find any clue on how/where/if_possible to set up such connection in CentOS. Anybody has any experience with ipoe...? Thx, JD

hi all. i am currently now serving PPPoE in my area. i had a script generated from tcng that worked perfectly before i started serving PPPoE. the issue is not in the script it self BUT in that "tc" code is not shaping on the ethernet anymore BUT INSTEAD on the pppX devices. I tested it and talking jargon, what should i do? The issue is that for each PPPoE login, PPPoE-server

what is the limit on the arp cache entires ?! Does someone have very big LANs with linux-routers ? How big ?

I have three ADSL lines that I''d like to use as one big pipe to the internet. The ADSL service works by establishing a pppoe connection (the ADSL "modem" is a bridge), and each pppoe interface gets its own IP address. This means I''d have to have 4 ethernet interfaces (3 for each of the ADSL modems and 1 for the LAN) in my gateway. I''d setup the gateway to NAT

Hi, I am having problems establishing an adsl connection in dom0 (but ONLY in dom0, without xen everything is ok). Following is my setup/situation: 1. Installed clean Fedora 7 (with virtualization option selected) 2. Booted with the non-xen kernel & setup adsl. Adsl connection works without any problems. 3. Rebooted with xen kernel into dom0. 4. adsl connection can no longer be activated

Hi, I have Mandrake 10.0 (official). I have read the section in lartc about "Routing for multiple uplinks/providers", but still I have some queries below. I have a DSL connection where they give pppoe which is directly terminated into eth1 of my Linux box. Now I have another machine connected to dial-up and it is on same LAN connected to eth0 of Linux box. Now, can I use both these

I just need a "temporary" pppoe server, that only uses PAP ___Can someone post a howto, just in a few lines, what to do?___ If I just do "pppd require-pap" then it gives this error: pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself pppd: but I couldn't fin any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. pppd is by default installed. and there are just a

Hi, I want a way to traffic shape pppoe encapsulated pkts based on its src/dst Ip address. Is there any way I can mark pppoe encapsulated pkts? Samit

I have a requirement which I guess it is not too unusually, however I haven''t quite figured out how to do it and couldn''t find any examples which handle that. I have made myself a Linux-based bridge, eth0 bridged with eth1 to form br0. In this bridge, I run ''tc'' script to handle QoS. So far nothing unusual. However, what''s different is that this
