Hi all, I tried to configure a simple script like this: ************************************************* #!/bin/bash SORG=10.0.0.33 DEST=10.0.0.34 ipchains -F ipchains -A output -s $SORG -d $DEST -j ACCEPT -m 1 tc qdisc del dev eth0 root handle 1:0 cbq bandwidth 33600bps avpkt 1000 tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 cbq bandwidth 33600bps avpkt 1000 tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 cbq bandwidth 33600bps rate 10000bps allot 1514 maxburst 20 avpkt 1000 prio 3 tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 handle 1 fw classid 1:1 ******************************************************** My problem is that I cannot see any bandwidth reduction, I download from 10.0.0.33 to 10.0.0.34 with same speed as before (normal ethernet speed). Maybe there exists some file under /proc fs to modify? Some other debug info: ******************************************************* [root@adsl bin]# tc -d qdisc show dev eth0 qdisc cbq 1: rate 33600bps cell 8b (bounded,isolated) prio no-transmit/8 weight 33600bps allot 1514b level 1 ewma 5 avpkt 1000b maxidle 928us [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# tc -d class show dev eth0 class cbq 1: root rate 33600bps cell 8b (bounded,isolated) prio no-transmit/8 weight 33600bps allot 1514b level 1 ewma 5 avpkt 1000b maxidle 928us class cbq 1:1 parent 1: rate 10000bps cell 8b prio 3/3 weight 10000bps allot 1514b level 0 ewma 5 avpkt 1000b maxidle 62298us [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# [root@adsl bin]# tc filter show dev eth0 filter parent 1: protocol ip pref 1 fw filter parent 1: protocol ip pref 1 fw handle 0x1 classid 1:1 *************************************************************** My system is: RedHat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.7-10 on Intel Celeron 300MHz - 128 MB ram Please let me know what I'm wronging...
