-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, there's something I really don't understand. What I wanna do is to shape my incoming _and_ my outgoing traffic in speperate queues. I have a 256kbit up and 256kbit down link on eth1. I want to use iptables to set the marks. wan=eth1 lowin=1 # ; highin=2 lowout=5 # ; highout=6 # mark incoming traffic iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i $wan -p tcp --sport 80 \ -j MARK --set-mark $lowin # mark outgoing traffic iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -o $wan -p tcp --dport 80 \ -j MARK --set-mark $lowout tc qdisc handle add dev $wan root handle 1:0 htb tc class add dev $wan parent 1:0 classid 1:1 htb rate 256kbit # input shaping tc class add dev $wan parent 1:0 classid 1:2 htb rate 256kbit # output shaping tc class add dev $wan parent 1:1 classid 1:11 htb rate 64kbit # low in tc class add dev $wan parent 1:1 classid 1:12 htb rate 192kbit # high in tc class add dev $wan parent 1:2 classid 1:21 htb rate 64kbit # low out tc class add dev $wan parent 1:2 classid 1:22 htb rate 192kbit # high out tc filter add dev $wan parent 1:1 protocol ip prio 1 \ fw handle $lowin flowid 1:11 tc filter add dev $wan parent 1:2 protocol ip prio 1 \ fw handle $lowout flowid 1:21 What I think I have done is that I've created to main queues (1:1 and 1:2) each one rating up to 256kbit. Each main queue got devided into a queue for low traffic (non priorized) and one high traffic (priorized). Then, I attatched the filter that anchors the iptables marked ip packets to their corresponding queue. But does this really work? I also notices somewhere that you just can shape input traffic, and for output you need a special IMQ target for iptables, why? And why doesn't it work in that way? Furthermore, is this right how I mark the outgoing traffic? should this be done in POSTROUTING, or even somewhere else? It's that we've PREROUTING,INPUT, FORWARD,OUTPUT and POSTROUTING have in table mangle. Please, would you help me solving my problem? Thanks in advance, Christian Parpart. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9eWOpPpa2GmDVhK0RAgYtAJ9EgbgblPUgeB+1C0rbBMGE2u6MCACdFpOh ZIoj8dQQ3GYpWjxHrgTT/5Y= =hq5D -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
