similar to: Clamping tcp mss values to decrease latency

Hey, My internet is provided via ADSL using PPPoE. When I take a look at ifconfig''s output, I see that eth0 has an MTU of 1500, and ppp0 has an MTU of 1492. I don''t _think_ that rp-pppoe (my pppoe util) is clamping the MSS. I am noticing some latency when there''s a lot of bandwidth in use (but not >90%). What should I clamp, eth0/ppp0? How much? And what with,

I sent the message below to this list over a week ago, and I haven''t seen any response. If this is not the correct forum for my question, can anyone suggest a better person or place to which I should direct it?

I would like to differentiate incoming traffic streams to guarantee minimum bandwidth to some services. However, as per the Adv-Routing-HOWTO it appears that only outgoing traffic can be shaped. Is this correct or is there a way of shaping incoming traffic? The problem could possibly be overcome if there is a way of routing traffic through a virtual host. Any tips on how to go about that? --

I''ve followed this list for quite a long time and have even posted a couple of times. I used the early versions of IMQ from Devik (I think that was his name), and it worked well. I only ever got the chance to implement it in my test environment. I now need to implement it in my production environment. My Linux core router has nine interfaces and has a 27 megabit connection to the

I run a small Linux webserver and NAT router from my cable modem at home. Whenever someone starts an http download, all other traffic from my LAN is starved. Bandwidth is not really an issue, but latency is particularly horrible -- pings that usually come back in 20ms can take up to 600ms while the web server is active! I set up QoS (netfilter+iproute2) on the NAT machine in an attempt to give

Hi, for interested in participation on finishing new HTB developement I created simple docs regarding it. It is some insight into CBQ and HTB workings and problems. See luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/v3/

Hello every one, first time poster, four month shorewaller ;) As the subject states, I''ve been experienced the infamous trouble described in the next excerpt from shorewall.conf # MSS CLAMPING # # Set this variable to "Yes" or "yes" if you want the TCP "Clamp MSS to PMTU" # option. This option is most commonly required when your internet # interface is some

Hello, I think the BUG_TRAP() in the htb_dequeue_tree() is wrong. First it checks if the class pointer "cl" is NULL, which is obviously right. But I do not understand why we also check whenever the queue length of the leaf queue is zero "cl->un.leaf.q->q.qlen". I would have put that in the expression of the "if" statements that comes afterwards. A queue

Can I use the same SFQ queue dicipline for all the classe in a CBQ or HBT system?

Hi I have a (bizarre) problem with ssh, which someone has suggested may be down to the MSS value being too high. I know that within Shorewall I can clamp the MSS value to the MTU-40 value, but is there a way I can set MSS to a discreet value? I just want to (dis)prove the MSS theory at the moment (I know it isn''t a real fix). Thanks, Keith

Clients: Some sites just show the top area not the full page. Some sites cant be reached at all. I think it 90% may be the MTU/MSS problem. But I already have set the shorewall.conf CLAMPMSS=1400 or CLAMPMSS=Yes, but it doest make things good. I would be mad. Anybody helps me would so appreciated! If you want know more info. to diag my problem, I would be please to.

hi all, i want to try htb3 with imq downloaded & patched imq & htb3 with kernel-2.4.18 on rh7.2 but got STUCK on step 1 :( this are what i did can anyone guide me what went wrong on the first step itself !!

I have a user with with W7/TBird/IMAP to my dovecot 2.1.17 server, the user complains whilst he is composing lengthy emails (with multiple fowrds/replies quoted in the message) he gets 'hour glass' over compose windows with some message about not being able to save drafts, he then powers off ADSL modem, which enables him to continue composing email, powers on ADSL, and sends email what

Hi, I am using tinc 1.0.23 in router mode and am having trouble with intermittent TCP connect timeouts that do not occur when routing the TCP over the internet directly. I am using a pure IPv6 setup (i.e direct IPv6 connections, and tunneled IPv6 subnets). My configs are as follows: Site 1: ----------------------- tinc.conf: Name = rsukmhb AddressFamily = ipv6 BindToAddress =

Witold Szczerba spent his time evaluating fairness of borrowing. His troubles inspired me enough to analyze the problem: When a class changes from yellow to green it disconnects itself from parent''s feedlist. Unfortunately it resets feed pointer to the first child. I created a patch where the class uses classid to remember its position in the feedlist. The patch for 2.4.24 and hopefully

Hello! I need to switch from htb2 to htb3, because of speed issues (for me, htb2 is unable to handle more then 100mbit duplex with ~550 classes), kernel profiling shows htb_dequeue_prio at 1st place with 3x isolation. So, I''ve moved from 2.4.19 to 2.4.25 kernel (hi-pac for classification/marking and htb3 for queueing), and traffic rate drop from 100 to 20mbit. What can be wrong? The
