similar to: priority bands don't reduce interactive latency?

I am looking for a good htb traffic shaping script to prioritize incoming traffic over outgoing traffic for my machine. I have a 100mbit line, ftp up, backup data comming in, but whenever mirrors starts grabbing it they use all the traffic and the backup data comming in (the important data) drops to like 300kb/sec. I was thinking some script doing sleep 60 [if downstream > 1mb/sec, limit

Hi all, Im new to all this, and am still trying to get my head qround some of the concepts of how this all works. Ive read the howto''s, man pages etc. Ive setup packet shaping on my router/server box using HTB and SFQ, but its not working the way i would like. Im after shaping that has "weights" for classes so that a lower priority class will slow down when a higher class

I try to shape traffic using HTB and mark packets within iptables using PREROUTING. But the filterrules seems to ignore the marks set with PREROUTING Only POSTROUTING marks are accepted. First my configuration I have a router connected to the internet via ADSL over interface ppp0. eth0 is a tunnel to ppp0 and eth1 serves the LAN. LAN is 192.168.57.0/24 on 10Mbit ppp0 is 80.126.16.44 on

please, help, i have build vpn server (suse 9 + poptop), i have managed to implement tc htb in ip-up script, but every client has own ppp interface (ppp0, ppp1, ppp2...), and my idea is to share available bandwidth, not to limit connection, how to build root tc rule, when I have more then one interface?... please any one width experiance regards _______________________________________________

Hello! My system is: Internet ADSL(PPPoE) ---> ppp0 [LINUX server(router)] eth0 ---> LAN Server(router) is running on LINUX Slackware 8.1. I have recompiled a 2.4.22 kernel, enabled all QoS support in the kernel config, including HTB. My ADSL bandwidth is 256Kbit/s for download and 64Kbit/s for upload. I use the following HTB+IPTABLES configuration, because I want to reduce bandwith for

Hi All, I''ve been playing with QOS for a short while now and have worked out how to do what I want using HTB. Great queuing discipline btw. My problem is the tc filters I want to setup aren''t working because iptables is getting to the packets first and mangling the src address. The iptables script I am using is MonMotha''s Firewall 2.3.8 and it includes lots of nice

Hello, I''m using tc to limit the bandwidth of our wireless customers. I have a working script, but I''m not happy with it. I''m trying to write a more sophisticated script, but when I run it, it give me this error: RTNETLINK answers: File exists I have no idea what this error means or how to fix it. Here is a portion of the script (the whole script shapes several

Lartc readers I have a peculiar problem with shaping and firewalling. My tc rules work great, below is a smaller version: #Root tc qdisc del dev eth0 root tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: htb default 100 #Root Class tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 1024kbit quantum 20000 burst 15k #Class for each user tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:2 htb rate 32kbit ceil

Hi Is there a way of marking packets by mac address instead of ip or ports using a "tc filter u32 match"? I read somewhere that I could use the offset -8 and -14 to grab the mac addresses but if I use anything lower than -8, for example -9, I get an error. I''m modifying the wondershaper script to cap the download speed by mac address. Any sugestions?

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

Hello all, Please could someone help me with this, I have been trying for days to get this to work. I would like to have BE, AF & EF classes with HTB qdisc. I can''t find any scripts online where this has been done. If I enable this filter: #tc filter add dev eth0 parent 2:0 protocol ip prio 1 \ #tcindex mask 0xf0 shift 4 pass_on then BE & AF classification seems to be fine but

Hello At first I must tell you that I´m a real newbie with Linux (and english as well...) I´m using 2 vlans and shaping works quite well without vlan Now I want to do load balancing at these vlans. Any vlan should get the same minimum/maximum bandwidth of download and use the bandwidth that isn´t used by the other one at the moment. But with vlan the shaping doesn´t work. Can you please tell me

Hi folks, I read the fantastic LARTC How-to and after that i tried to limit one host in my LAN for both down-and upload bandwidth usage. I took section 15.9. and added uplink-limiting as I understood it from the previous chapters. Unfortunately it doesn''t work. I ran the script and went to the specified PC, started a download, and watched the rate. The rate was always about 2000 kbit/s,

Hi all, I''ve not been able to find an explanation of the relationship between prio and rate as they apply to the HTB technique. Hopefully someone on here will be able to help me. As I understand things, when prio values are assigned to an HTB setup, classes with a given prio value will only be serviced when there are no packets waiting in classes with a lower prio value. Now, does

I''m streaming audio over a WAN that is 1.5Mbit/s. The audio has to go both ways and can be over tcp or udp. The manufacturers recommend udp as it has less overhead but has a higher chance of dropping out. The audio requires 130-200kbit/s in each direction for a combined 260-400kbit/s. I have two transparent bridges on either side of the WAN to do traffic control. I split it so

Hello, I wrote a simple traffic shaping script (below) that should have allowed me to shape my internet traffic a bit (ppp0 - adsl 128kbit/64kbit; local interface eth0). The script works only partially - the speed is being limited but too much. Without running this script my download rate is about 10kBytes (with second computer also downloading at about 6kBytes). After running it my download speed

Hi, When i do ''wshaper start'' the interface i have defined stops routing traffic for some reason. It resumes routing when i do ''wshaper stop''. I''m using debian stable (3.0 woody) with debian''s default 2.4.18-686 kernel. When I run the script I get no errors, and when I do a ''status'', everything looks correct. Can ANYONE

Hi, Thanks for the reply. Thats where the problem starts. If I set ppp0 as the default gw the internet doesnt work anymore. This is how im doing it... route del default route add default gw 217.32.81.74 dev ppp0 if I put it back to ppp1... route del default route add default gw 217.32.68.73 dev ppp1 It works fine again. Whats up with that? Cheers, Chris ----- Original Message

Hello, First of all, I already contacted Martin Devera, the developer of HTB, and he told me to search for help on this mailinglist, thus I am describing my problems here now... I am kind of seriously annoyed by QoS as I have been trying for over 3 years to get it working properly - first I did not understand how it works, then it seemed not to work, then it was working perfectly for half a
