Hi all, ive been
reading lartc howto, im new about traffic shaping/police.
As far as red
(chapter 9 complete) i saw that first the packet passes at the ingress qdisc,
then it passes to the ip stack if the packet is directed to the box or its
forwarded (is my case), then it falls to the egress
classifier/s.
Now, i understand if
i have an ipsec vpn at the outside interface, the egress classifiers will act
before the packet leave the kernel and enter to the vpn tunnel, is this
correct?
Here's my situation
, i have a "headquarter" box that is a database (to call it with a name) and
then a lot of branches that send queries to this database and based on the
results, the branches send packets to other branches trough some established
IPSEC tunnels. So, hq is the route database, and the branches send voice traffic
to other branches.
Now i have to set
traffic shaping and manage the bandwith for senialization and for voice
flows (rtp flows). So i need to be shure that i can classify the packets at the
outside interface before them enters to the vpn tunnel.
is this
correct?
Thanks in
advance.
