Hi, first of all, let me thank you for your great Shoreline Firewall. I use it with great success at home (protecting my WiFi connection). And now if I could have a question about traffic shaping. I did read everything I could find but I still have two problems: first, the MARK from tcrules is not working in HTB based simple tc filter line ("handle $MARK fw classid 1:20"). If I switch

Hi all, I moved wshaper 1.1 cbq file to tcstart, but none of my tcrules are being observed. The only way I can set the marks is by editing the tcstart file. Is there a way to incorporate for tcstart to read and apply my set marks in tcrules? Thank you, ~Andrew Nady.

So after reading the traffic control documentation at shorewall.net I am a little confused. I don''t understand how to use the tcrules file. What I would ideally like to do is setup htb on a per user basis (either by IP or MAC address). If anybody has any hints on the best way to do this or is willing to explain the use of tcrules file a little better (how I could mark it per IP or MAC)

Hi ! I found an excellent article about QoS and traffic shaping for VoIP (Asterisk IAX protocol), which is designed to improve sound quality even over very busy lines. http://www.howtoforge.com/voip_qos_traffic_shaping_iproute2_asterisk Should I just cut and paste all that to shorewall''s tcrules (replacing 4569 with 5060)? Additionally, author of this article uses IAX protocol,

Hi Guys, I''m asking this question again because I have exhausted resources for understanding how to get it to work. I''ve read the howto on getting traffic shaping to work (shorewall''s web site) as well as trying out wondershaper''s htb and cbq scripts. Somehow both does not seem to happen as I want it to. I''ve also read through the lartc

I''m currently building a firewall for a network with 2 ISP links. Unfortunately, one of the ISP''s doesn''t support BGP yet, otherwise I would be doing load balancing at the router, instead of the firewall. I''ve been trying to find information on how to get WonderShaper working, but everything I''ve found talks about setting it up for a firewall with one

Season Greetings to all Tom, in your faq, u have this noted: While I am currently using the HTB version of The Wonder Shaper (I just copied wshaper.htb to /etc/shorewall/tcstart and modified it as shown in the Wondershaper README), I treid this with wondershaper, using Bearing Leaf 1.0 stable i even changed the tc command to run_tc, and tried it in both angles, and i receive the following..

I try use setup traffic shaping with Shorewall-4.0.2 and have fault. When i start Shorewall with tc-files configured i get follow messages: ...

Version 3.0.5 with the two-devices setup (eth0 - net, eth1 - loc).

Hi there. Currently, our network design has two ISP lines and 3 subnets for LAN. Below are some details :- eth0 - isp1 eth1 - isp2 eth2 - subnet1 eth3 - subnet2 eth4 - subnet3 What i wanted to do is to assign incoming port 80 to our local squid server running on the firewall itself and assigned it to eth0(ISP1). I think it shouldnt be a problem as /etc/shorewall/rules provides a sample of the

Ok, shaping on Linux is new to me.. so bear with me if i am just stupid. curtain:/etc/shorewall# grep TC shorewall.conf | grep -v ^# TCP_FLAGS_LOG_LEVEL=info TC_ENABLED=Yes CLEAR_TC=Yes TCP_FLAGS_DISPOSITION=DROP curtain:/etc/shorewall# So it should be enabled, right? ---- tcrules ---- 1 eth0 0.0.0.0/0 all 2 eth1 0.0.0.0/0 all 2 eth2 0.0.0.0/0

Having study a number of documents on linux traffic shaper, I started to setup my shaping rules in my network. My linux box is running RH AS3 U3, shorewall 2.0.9. It is using PPPoE connected to the Internet firewall: eth0: connect to the adsl modem eth1: private net ppp0: virtual dial up interface for pppoe There is a ftp server on the private net It is listen for port 21 and configured

(excuse me for my english) why mark range in tcrules is 1-255 ? iptables support marks > 255. Leandro.

hi who can ever help me out with the shaping of torrent traffic? i have a pptp at ppp0 over eth0 (10.0.0.1/8) i would like to shape outgoing traffic of rtorrent on these two interfaces, assume rtorrent is running at port 6999 need 3mbit for ppp0 and 50mbit for eth0 i supposed: [tcclasses] ppp0 1 2mbit 3mbit 1 eth0 2 20mbit 50mbit 2 [tcrules] 1 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp

Following my question: I want to limit all uploading coming from eth1, going to the internet, TCP port 333, to 5kbit. (The recipients in the internet receive the data on port 333) What do I have to add to the tcrules/tcstart files? The situation so far: The Linux PC is connected to the Internet with eth0. I have so far copied the contents of the wshaper.htb file (from The Wonder Shaper) to

Hi All, I have a custom TC configuration where I''m building the tc hierarchy manually with the tcstart script. I also need to add custom iptables rules in the mangle table to classify the packets. Currently I''m using started to insert the iptables commands, but that''s way too late in the process. I tried putting them into the initdone file, but it''s trying to

Hi all and specially Mr. Tom.... (Please, do not be acid with me please! I am only a newbie, trying learn more about shorewall) I get involved with a Firewall Project in a customer here in my city... In this customer, he has two Internet Providers. So, he ask me how make certain connection following one routing path (like RT_1) and others connections type, following the other routing path

I have two (interconnected) questions: First of all, I''m trying to use IPP2P to classify my P2P traffic and give it a lower network priority. I''ve already successfully built IPP2P into iptables and the kernel. I read http://www.shorewall.net/IPP2P.html, but it''s confusing me. Using the documentation for normal tcrules in 3.0
