Hello guys, I am experiencing a strange behaviour with HTB. Here is my
situation: Test PC -------- internet ------------- ISP ----- fiber
connection --------- (eht2) RT1 (eth1) --------- wireless connection ------------
(eth4) RT2 (eth0) -------- users RT1 – Slackware router RT2 – Slackware router Delay between Test PC and ISP is approx 450 ms. I have the following shapers RT1 ETH2 – dedicated bandwidth for Test PC 40kbps RT2 ETH4 – dedicated bandwidth for Test PC 30kbps RT2 ETH4 – dedicated bandwidth for users to upload is
250kbps The thing is if I use Test PC to download from RT1 it makes
straight line of 40kbps. If I use TestPC to download from RT2 the traffic
varies from 3kbps to 30kbps. It is very random. If I start a transfer on RT1
from RT2 I can see there is much bandwidth available I can use 230kbps. We simulated the Test PC connecting is straight on eth4 of
RT2 with the same IP address it has on internet in order to not change the
shaper and the transfer was exactly as specified in the shaper – 30kbps So I am wondering is it possible that because of the delay
of the Test PC the HTB doesn’t work properly and somehow trafic with
bigger delay gets lower priority? The test PC otherwise downloads from anywhere on internet
with about 50kbps. By the way RT2s CPU is busy between 6-25%. What is the
recommended CPU usage on which the HTB will be working acceptable? Any hints will be much appreciated, Regards, Bisser Milanov |
