Bandwidth management under linux

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In my search to control bandwidth on my network I found 2 projects..

1. TC
2. BWM Tools - http://freshmeat.net/projects/bwmtools/

This brings me to 2 questions...

Firstly, can TC control bandwidth in both directions? I read that it
can only do 1 direction, which one I cant remember. Can you monitor
the load on the queues you define? Does TC support IPv6?

Secondly, BWM Tools seems to queue traffic to userspace and use some
kind of kernel module to allow it through or not. How efficient is
bandwidth control using ip queing to userspace? BWM Tools doesn't seem
to support IPv6  :(

If anyone else knows of a way I can shape traffic, please let me know.

Regards
Johan
