If I then want to shape the traffic I send to the "ppp0" interface, which bandwidth would be used for setting up a CBQ? I suppose that here the "virtual" (e.g. limited by the ISP) bandwidth of my "ppp0" connection (e.g. 128 kbit/s) is the interesting one, not the bandwidth of my "eth0" (10 Mbit/s), because the CBQ is attached to the "ppp0" device and has nothing to do with the underlaying "eth0". Is this assumption correct? TIA, Steffen
