OK, I'm stumped. I've read through most of the LARTC HOWTO and have yet to find a basis for what I need to accomplish. I have a Linux box that controls access to and from the Internet at my workplace. We have a number of remote employees that connect via PPTP and IPSEC to the office's internal network. Some of these remote employees are currently using SIP phones. The problem is occasionally the available bandwidth becomes consumed and the VoIP calls (obviously) suffer because of this. Configuration: eth0 - connected to the internal office eth1 - connected to the internet pppX - incoming on eth1 connection ipsec0 - incoming on eth1 connection My question, how can I set classful htb queuing up so that it's rules encompass all traffic on eth1 (including that to and from the ipsec and ppp connections) while reserving bandwidth for and prioritizing the SIP traffic? In looking through chapter 9 it appears that all the configurations apply to a specific interface, and thus would only get eth1 for example. While the traffic on the ppp and ipsec connections would arrive on the eth1 interface only after being placed on their specific interfaces and encrypted, thus most likely missing proper classification and prioritization. Am I over thinking this problem or missing something? I'll happily provide any clarification or additional information needed. -- Jamin W.
