-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It's a tennis-game on the LARTC list, Gustavo! :) : > The question is not : > whether priorities are useless, but rather, how often do you expect : > your link to be congested? : : Good point... and the answer is: allways. : : With the low DSL uploads available a single connection will : saturate it - we currently have 20Mbs/400kbps (!) services, for : example. Strange ratio--20 to 1, but I don't know a great deal about DSL provisioning. : Meanwhile, I just finished my first trial on this approach.

Well, good luck with it. You could consider following the lartc.org HOWTO on PRIO qdiscs with embedded SFQs [0]. : > I'm not crazy about the dropping of the MTU, but otherwise, : : I found that it was causing problems, so that part is gone. While it's not a bad idea from a traffic control perspective, there are so many ramifications of changing the MTU that I don't find it worthwhile. : (OT: I wonder, if the kernel team doesn't want to include IMQ, : what's their recommended solution for this problem, on a router : with more than 2 interfaces) The developers have recently been working on something called ifb, which is intended to be a replacement for IMQ. I don't know too much about it, but there are snippets of documentation about the 'net if you are on good terms with google. - -Martin [0] http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.qdisc.classful.html#AEN903 - -- Martin A.
