Having never worked with Linux TC before, I have a few questions about setting it up and am not certain I understand the Howto well enough to do what I specifically want. I have a linux firewall talking to my cable modem, as well as the rest of my network. I have 4 things I'm trying to accomplish, in order of priority: 1) I use a VoIP phone, and want to give it as much bandwidth as it wants whenever it wants it with minimal latancy - this should never be more than about 100kbit. There is one VoIP device that will always be on the same IP when on my network (DHCP Reservation). 2) I want interactive traffic, especially SSH, to get priority over everything except the VoIP device. Low latancy is also important here. 3) All non-P2P (primarily bittorrent) traffic should be able to take up whatever isn't being used by #1 and #2. Latancy is ok, as long as it's not to big. Since I routinely get > 2000kbit downloads, I don't expect this to be a problem. 4) Any P2P traffic can use up whatever's left, but should surrender most of its bandwidth if needed. I'm thinking of giving it around 256kbit to play with as a minimum available for P2P, as long as #1 and #2 are met. The firewall is also acting as a transparant squid proxy for http, which may or may not make a difference. I'm pretty sure that this can be done relatively easily, if not simply, but it's just not obvious to me. Any and all help is appreciated.
