I hav just seem some older stuff on the VLAN mailing list which might do what I want. I'm still investigating. >Are these wireless customers? Nup. Well, not directly. This is going on our backbone, so I'm not taking traffic straight off the wireless. Ultimately, it will be delivered to a customer over a wireless link, but there's lots of ethernet between the QOS box and the wireless. By the way, wireless != 802.11, there's plenty of other flavours which all taste just like ethernet. > I wonder if htb tweaked/untweaked/hfsc/policers could be better than cbq At this point I'm not locked into any particular discipline, but cbq looked like it would do what I wanted. I'll look a little further into the other possibilities.

If I pass normal, untagged packets through this setup, it behaves as expected. However, once I put tagged packets through the bridge, it fails to shape traffic. > I don't want to have to use VLAN sub-interfaces, because the VLAN code strips the 802.1q tag from packets before they can be examined, which causes me problems in other areas. Are these wireless customers? I've never shaped wireless - do you get alot of extra loss from link layer, what's the bandwidth, single duplex or is it round robin type? I wonder if htb tweaked/untweaked/hfsc/policers could be better than cbq - you may be able to get things better for link latyer, tcpdumps will show you how bursty things are for users.
