I did some filter tests to see if you can split the traffic in different classes and how you have to do this. At the same time I tried the isolated parameter. If you have an isolated, not-bounded class, there is no shaping. As long as the classes are bounded, everything is working like it should be : http://www.docum.org/stef.coene/qos/tests/cbq/filter.html > Anyway Stef, i am glad that you have detected something without my > telling you.

If you want to have tied control, you have to create 1 class (filter) / user. Or you can try the wrr qdisc (you can find a link on www.docum.org). This qdisc can create 1 class for each filter/mac-address it sees and punish big downloaders by limiting the rate. > Also, can i do them on the fly by having them login cia a SUID ROOT ph > page and then get web access and thus adding/deleting these qdisc's > /classes/filters on the fly???. Or you use a tc binary with a sticky bit so any user can execute tc and the execution is done as user root. Just wondering, you make all classes bounded. So they can not borrow bandwidth from each other. But if you do this, why do you create the classes 1:1 and 1:2 ?? And you use 2 filters to put the packets in the end class. You can do this in 1 step so you need only 1 filter. Just put the packets directly in the end class. If you are interested, I did some tests with filters and how the weight parameter influence the sharing between the filters : http://www.docum.org/stef.coene/qos/tests/cbq/splitting/splitting.html Stef -- stef.coene@xxxxxxxxx "Using Linux as bandwidth manager" http://www.docum.org/ #lartc @ irc.oftc.net
