Even faster then CBQ. For the filters, you can use one fw filter. This filter will use the iptables mark direclty to find the class. If you mark a packet with 9, it will end in class :9. Very easy. So all filter logic is in the iptables rules. But you still have to create all the classes. Or you can use the wrr qdisc (http://wipl-wrr.sourceforge.net). This qdisc will create a class for each ip it sees. So you don't need to create the classes and the filters yourself. Stef
