Hi all, I'm sure I'm soing something wrong here. I am trying to set up a rate limit inside another rate limit. eg. I have a 512K rate limit on a particular VLAN. I am using an IFB so that packets passing through the bridge are counted at each port.(ie the throughput is limited to 512K, not just the traffic in one direction.)
When I tested this ages ago, it was alot bettter (for useability) to still keep the traffic seperate - and on top of that make big tcp second class.
That was with htb - I don't kow cbq but with htb you could use ceil to further limit traffic classes, you would still need to make sure rates didn't add up to more than parent - it doesn't cap children for htb. I don't know how accurate cbq is or how it chooses queue lengths - you should really specify child queues so you get to decide on q length. HTB/HFSC will choose a really small default on ppp/vlan IIRC IFB is 32 so not quite as bad.
