In the > HBT HOWTO there are gnuplots of traffic destined for different ports. The simulator is used to test queuing part of qdisc. The ports in plot was added by myself to make more complete picture. ethloop didn't create "regular" ip packets co that you can't use it to test filters. > * Low rate shaping > > My maximum uplink is 384kbits/sec .

The fast rates used in examples was to demonstrate ability to operate on high speeds. devik _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
