It's funny because the above topology is exactly what I had envisioned but read that it was impossible. My setup is to have a number of users who have bandwidth limiting based on an ip but also does priority shaping as well. I finally decided that I could have a top level htb qdisc for the total box bandwidth with seperate classes for the users below the box bandwidth qdisc. Underneath each user's class I thought that I could possibly attach a prio qdisc to do independent priority scheduling. I don't know if this works. It was just a thought I had. If think the manpage shows that you can attach a prio to any class. Does this work and is it a feasable setup? _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
