Sorry for my insistence, but I have tried to use different "prios" based on the class rate and what happens is that the class that has more rate, and in this case more priority, will borrow almost all the excess bandwidth.
Like I said, I have read that htb share its excess bandwidth proportionaly to the class rates its childrens are assigned.
I made a test and based on the statistics of "tc ouput" we can see that the class that has more rate "borrowed" less of the excess bandwidth.
Another question is what is the meaning of "lended" in htb? To me it is a little bit confusing.

Hej Ronaldo
Remember to prioritize the excess bandwidth. If you are using the HTB read the bottom section of the manual.: http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/manual/userg.htm#prio
The "prio" parameter will help you with your problem, give the child classes a priority from 1-3, where 1 is the highest priority and 3 is the lowest.

Hi,
I'm trying to configure QoS on my linux in the following manner:
I have a main link with 64K, so I divided it in 3 classes of 18K, 14K and 9K with an excess (not used for classified traffic, just to be shared) of 23K. This excess should be distributed proportonally among the 3 classes, that is, the class that has more rate should borrow more bandwidth. What is happening is just the opposite, the class that has less rate is borrowing more bandwidth. A representation of my "hierarchical class layout" is as follow:
root - 64K
A - 18K B - 14K C - 9K
I have read some documentation that says it should work exactly in this in way, but it is not happening in my environment. All the tests I did show me that the class with less rate is borrow more bandwidth.
Can anyone help me?
