Hello again, I have several questions: Let's take a real case example... A connection of 256kbit split among some clients (8kbit RATE, 1500 QUANTUM - set manually). I use esfq to split the bandwidth as fair as possible. Q1. What happens if the SUM of all the clients' class RATE (+ the default class RATE) is smaller than 256kbit? Will HTB work correctly? Q2. What happens if the SUM of all the clients' class RATE (+ the default class RATE) is bigger than 256kbit? Will HTB work correctly? Q3. What happens if the ISP does not guarantee a "full 256kbit" bandwidth? (Suppose that I set my Linux box to shape 256kbit and my ISP provides me only 128kbit during high-traffic hours). Will HTB work correctly? In fact, I can tell you that it doesn't :( As I monitor with iptraf, I can see that heavy downloads take precedence (as If esfq would not work at all). Do you have any suggestions? (Besides changing my ISP :) ...) Q4. As far as I understood R2Q means the ratio between the RATE and the QUANTUM of a class... Which is more "powerful"? The RATE, or the QUANTUM? (e.g. ClassA---QUANTUM 3000---RATE 8kbit, or ClassB---QUANTUM 1500---RATE 16kbit) Q5. The HTB Manual says that the sum of the LEAF CLASSES RATE must be equal to the PARENT CLASS RATE. Is there such a rule for QUANTUMS? Thank you for your patience, Vlad Mihai _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
