That must have been me lamenting. Sure, there is plenty online, but sometimes difficult to collate & appreciate I guess. Anyway, try these too: http://www.docum.org This site has an EXCELLENT FAQ section, it answered many questions I had, like burst, cburst, quantum etc. It also has tests with graphs that show what happens when one adjusts these values. There are excellent links too. Well done to Stef Coene! http://kabru.eecs.umich.edu/qos_network/diffserv/DiffServ_prototype/qdisc Now this is some of the best work I've come across! Using DS marking & an excellent filter explanation. Definately higher grade. Maybe we could start a repository with the best information around? Suggestions anyone? Or just a page somewhere with the most up to date links etc.? If anyone from O'Reilly is reading this, PLEASE start a book! On 25/05/06, Martin A. Brown <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Greetings Vikram, : Can anybody help me out, how to manage or limit bandwidth through : iptables while having internet connection on eth0 and working as : a gateway in LAN. Just recently, somebody identified several of the most common resources used to understand the traffic control mechanisms available in the Linux kernel. These mechanisms are quite complex and he was lamenting the distributed nature of these documents. Much is available, however online. Try the following: [0] Jason Boxman's article on Linux QoS [1] my own article on the entire system and select parts [2] Leonardo Balliache's view into the underbelly of the beast [3] the venerable Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control HOWTO To provide you a bit of context before you get started, iptables can only help you with traffic control. The traffic control system can function in concert with iptables, but is a completely separate system.
