If I don't add a leaf qdisc, how can I be sure pfifo_fast is used? Or it's just a pfifo? >>People in my LAN play almost exclusively in MAN, not in the Internet.

If I was to allocate a real bandwidth quantum, then the competition between CS and other traffic (MAN and Internet) would not be fair even if it has the lowest prio. So I had to lie htb about the available bandwidth based upon the fact that bandwidth requirements for CS are low and bursty. HTB would not allocate bandwidth to a service that doesn't need it. (Or so I think; I may be wrong about that... Please correct me if I do.). I need more that one root class, because the bandwidths are separate and not supperposable. So what MAN can spare, Internet cannot use and vice-versa. (And MAN can spare a lot!) I tested a setup with a 1:A root class and 1:1; 1:2; 1:3 and 1:4 were child classes of 1:A. I got the same results. But I needed to lower the latency so I deleted that 1:A root class... _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
