I'd use HTB and "filter match" port 80 and port 25. You can't divide exactly half because there will be unshaped ICMP, UDP and ARP, but those don't usually require a lot of bandwidth so just create a default class for those that has a small rate and ceil, then subtract the default rate from your 64 k and allocate the remainder between mail and web. Don't forget that the sum of rates cannot exceed (about) 95 % of 64 k. Also look for "policy routing" because it discusses alternatives. There is lots of good information. -- gypsy _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
