What's going on here? I'm spewing UDP traffic at this thing, and it is
exceeding the ceil. Anyone know how to fix this?

class htb 1:613 parent 1:5 leaf 613: prio 6 quantum 2560 rate 20480bit

Try and verify rate of udp arrival at the target machine with tcpdump -ttt.

The sent counter is actually an enqueue rather than dequeue count so
blatting with udp may cause bogus rates (not that I've checked how
exactly htb does rate calculations).

I checked it with iftop, which confirms what tc is showing. I had
determined that this is an issue with fragmented packets rather then
specificly UDP, take a look at the other messages i posted to the
mailing list. is the is bug in tc/htb? or is this perhpse something
that could be corrected by enlarging the quantum?

I tried fragged udp and it seemed OK for me - whats the mtu on the
interface - if it's bigger than normal then try specifying it along with
rate/ceils to htb - Looking as I type I can see giants 1748 above (I
should have noticed that earlier) - htb does not shape big packets
properly unless you use the mtu option.

The list is down for me today.


I was not manualy setting the MTU. The interfaces I'm using have MTU
of 1500, but I'll try setting the MTU for my classes to 1500 and see
if that resolves the problem.

Hmm - 1500 should work by default and you should see no giants - so if the mtu on the interface was 1500 I can't see how htb counted 1748 giants.

Andy.
