Re: Fwd: Traffic Shaping on a Transparent Bridge not working!

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

I have also tried the Wondershaper script in the past when first getting into QoS etc..
This script only really helps for egress shaping for those who have DSL lines and a lot of uplink traffic, and want to bring down response times for gaming etc...

Try FairNat , It doesn't support multiple subnets, but since you have seperate external IP's, it might just be able to help. I use(and modified mine), and currently working very well. Thinking of trying HSFC , instead of HTB in the future, but getting docs that make sense is my current problem...

I hope this helps, since I am also quite new to all this myself. But sure is fun fiddling ;-).

Subject: Traffic Shaping on a Transparent Bridge not working!
To: devil-linux-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


My first DL project was going well.  Then I ran into problems attempting
to shape my bandwidth.

First I'll describe the parts that I believe are working correctly.

I have a DL 1.2.11 box running the default kernel, 2.4.33.3-grsec

I have br0 bridging all four ports eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3 on a quad port
pci card.  The bridge has not been assigned an ip number on the theory
that this makes it much more difficult to attack.  The bridge connects
four devices on the 3bit public static ip block from my ISP.

I have a single port ethernet pci card, eth4 with a static ip, on my
internal private ip network.  It is used for remote managent of the DL
box from anywhere on my internal network.

eth0 is connected to my ISP's router via the ethernet port on my
ISDN modem.  I know ISDN is a nearly dead technology, but it's the best
thing my crappy telco offers.  Tried a satellite ISP, but that's another
long and sad story.

eth1 is connected to a hardened publicly accessible host.

eth2 and eth3 are connected to the WAN ports on a couple of Linksys
Cable/DSL routers.  Eventually most of their functions will migrate to the
DL box, but that is more than I wanted to bite off in my first DL project.

The first Linksys box NATs one of my public ips to my internal private
ip network.  The second Linksys box is newer and includes a wireless
access point used by a couple neighbors.  It NATs a second public ip to
a separate private ip network.

All of the above appears to be working as expected.

After pondering the mysteries of traffic shaping I decided to start with
wondershaper 1.1a from lartc.org, rather than starting from scratch.

Tried both the cbq and htb versions without any success.

RTFM time.  The htb section of http://lartc.org/howto/index.html is easier
reading than the cbq section.  And the howto claims htb is better anyway.
Let's focus on the htb version of wondershaper.

OK, First we edit wshaper.htb and configure the shell variables.  Then we
run:  sh -x wshaper.htb
to echo the commands as they are executed.

Then we start pinging the router at the other end of the ISDN line.

Then we start downloading a file to generate some traffic that really
needs to be shaped.

Then we run: sh -x wshaper.htb status
to gather some statistics

then we kill the download.

then we sh -x wshaper.htb stop to shut down the malfunctioning shaper.

Here's the output from the ping:

$ ping 67.0.192.10
PING 67.0.192.10 ( 67.0.192.10) 56(84) bytes of data.

Download starts.  Shaping is not working!  Queues in
router and/or ISDN modem grow, and ping times rapidly
become huge.

Don't think we generated enough uplink traffic to exercise the htb qdiscs.

But it doesn't look like the ingress qdisc is working at all.

I'm out of ideas for now.
