Hi gang, I have an application that is sending streaming media to a server. The encoder computer sends an average of 200kbit stream; but for short, 1 second bursts, can hit 400-500kbits. After it does one of these bursts, it reduces its output for another second or two, so that it maintains its average of 200kbits. The problem is that it is sending UDP packets into a DSL link that has a fixed upstream cap of 300kbit. All is fine until it decides to burst, then I get dropped packets. Is there a way I can insert a linux box after the encoding machine that I can use some traffic shaping to: 1. Make sure it never sends more than 300k up (I do know how to do this now) 2. Make a big buffer so that I can still get all the data through the pipe, albeit with some delay, when these bursts happen. I would need this buffer to handle at least 2 seconds worth, maybe more.
If you know how to do the 300k limit then using that same method add a queue depth to handle the difference on that class. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
