wondershaper has a set of rules for this. Why not borrow those rules and implement them?

Hi, I've read through the bigger parts of the docs, but I'm still fairly new to this, so I would like to ask you for a little advice. I've set up a 266Mhz-Linux-Router running a "Bering"-LEAF distribution, which provides shaping of a 2 Mbit SDSL-Line for about 90 users. We have quite a lot of P2P-users (student's dorm *g*), so the link became congested quite regularly. I've set up 90 subclasses borrowing from a HTB root class. Traffic is filtered to them based on (static) source IPs. The main reason for this are the users saying: "I've paid for my share of bandwidth, which should be at least xy kBps, so that's the least I can expect!" Now I would like to prioritize interactive traffic for every user, too. What's the most elegant way to do this? Create 90 more classes with a better priority? Isn't there a better way? Thanks for your patience, Björn Snippe Hannover, Germany _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
