I've finally decied that the prio qdisc needs to be attached to root. Delay should be minimized first, with normal service 2nd, and max throughput third in the 3 band setup I have planned. Are there any recommendations? Basically terminals with telnet or ssh should get first priority with web traffic next and filesharing or transferring third. Does each band or class under a prio need to point to a seperate qdisc or can they all point to the same one? With this kind of qdisc, how do I track a users bandwidth since their traffic will be going through 3 seperate qdiscs based on tos. I'm thinking that I can wrap the prio in an htb and shape the users traffic before it gets to the prio. This seems out of whack. I thought that the prio scheduler should always be first in line so priority traffic gets handled first.
