You're right. I did some tests this weekend as well and realised that you
have to stick with the basics. The problem was that it was not so clear to
me how HTB behaves when the child's rates/ceil exceed the parent's.
Some other questions I'd like to ask you while I'm at it:
1) if you have:
1:1
/ \
/ \
1:2 1:3
/ \ / \
/ \ / \
1:4 1:5 1:6 1:7
If
1:2 = prio 1
1:3 = prio 2
1:4 = prio 10
1:5 = prio 11
1:6 = prio 5
1:7 = prio 6
Is 1:4, 1:5 evaluated first or 1:6, 1:7? Iow, does HTB start at the root
node, prioritize its children and, subprioritize their children, etc. or
is only the leaf nodes' priorities important (i.e. 1:6, 1:7, 1:4, 1:5)
2) if a class is evaluated and there is some bandwidth available to borrow,
is the first non-congested child given all bandwidth that is available and
then the next is given the rest and so on or is each child given a quantum
of bandwidth, then if there is some bandwidth left, a second round and so on?
