hello again, I got some just preliminary results .... hope someone can explain them to me... As I already told I have the following config : egress { class (30kbps) {sfq}; class (50kbps) {sfq}; class (80kbps) {sfq}; class (30kbps) {sfq}; class (50kbps) {sfq}; ...hundreds like this... class (10kbps,default) {sfq}; } What I got is traffic starvation very often for a period of ~30 sec.. as proposed I've done : egress { ...hundreds classes... class (10kbps, prio 7, default) {sfq}; } It seemed a litlle bit better the starvation seemed to be just ~10sec but this time happen much often... then I made a final touch : egress { ...hundreds classes... class (55kbps, prio 7, default); } No "sfq" this time and it seemed much much better now... I have done my tests mostly with : hping2 host-behind-qos --fast --icmp fping host1 host2 -l I made second and third test for very short periods of time so this is not a final "say" of the success... ------------ ?! SO COULD U EXPLAIN ME WHY THIS HAPPEN ?! -------------------------- And most importantly is there a better solution, I don't know what will happen if I want more complex solution but not this flat structure... Or at least give me some directions how to go further and eradicate this "STARVATION" problem.. Can I lower "class (55kbps, prio 7, default);" to "class (10kbps, prio 7, default);" .... Giving more bandwith to DEFAULT class is not solution but a ANTI-SOLUTION, my idea is not to give all my bandwith to spammers and viruses :") Expecting explanation :")) tia _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
