I need to be able to shape traffic and ensure fairness. Consequently, I have the following script which enables 3 cbq's with 3 levels of priority, the lowest (student queue) being limited to ony 2/3rds of the bandwidth (2mbit). Each class has an SFQ attached as well as an SFQ on the top class. > > The limit to 2mbit seems to function properly. However, neither the priority or the fairness seem to work. I get students downloading at 40-50KB/s, out performing a "high priority" address by 10x!! Also, one or two students can dominate the entire student class which says to me the SFQ is not doing its job. try with esfq (www.ssi.bg/~alex/esfq/) or rebuild your flows with wrr (wipl-wrr.sourceforge.net/wrr.html). you can read about this things in list archive. -- Wojtek Sawasciuk, net & sys administrator, ALT MAIL: voyo@gad.pl http://GAD.pl - e-biznes, e-multimedia, | tel.: 077 44 14 105, http://PUNKT.pl - lacza, hosting | fax: 077 45 31 222, _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
