Looking at the MRTG graph I can say that bps="bytes per second" WL> How do you get that output? Is it documented somewhere, so I can try it? To get the list of classes with details use "tc -s class ls dev eth0" To get the list of qdiscs with details use "tc -s qdisc ls dev eth0" If you want to check bandwidth consumed with every class use estimator in class definition "est 1sec 4sec" WL> tc class add dev eth0 parent 10:1 classid 10:300 est 1sec 4sec \ WL> cbq bandwidth 64Kbit rate \ WL> 8Kbit allot 1514 weight 1Kbit prio 5 maxburst 1 avpkt 1000 \ WL> bounded isolated After number of tests I come to conclusion that the only queueing discipline which can DROP packets and thereby throttle bandwith is TBF. But it does not allow to throttle bandwith dynamically, does not allow to relocate bandwith between classes:( Please put me right if I wrong. -- Best regards, Serguei mailto:admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
