HI Simo, Thanks for the info. Very
interesting read. I forgot to mention in the post that I am still
relatively new to traffic shaping with Linux but was still able to more than
comprehend the info in that document. Many thanks again. One thing that I am slightly
uncertain of though is that I would prefer not to divide the bandwidth between
x amount of people but rather designate a priority that packets take over each
other which that info doesn’t cover. Is it still possible using
HFSC to accomplish this? Kind regards, Rangi From: Simo
[mailto:simo@xxxxxxxxxx] Hi Rangi, Bandwidth ist important, but
VoIP needs more than this. Voice traffic needs low latency of packets.
That’s why traffic shaping maybe not lose your problem.
in this a HFCS queuing descipline
is used instead of HTB, because this can separate between bandwidth and delay.
For more Information about this can you find here: http://linux-ip.net/articles/hfsc.en/ bye Simo Von: lartc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[mailto:lartc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Im Auftrag von Rangi Biddle Dear List, I am wanting to perform some traffic shaping as the subject
of this email suggests. What I am wanting to do is this; I would like to have
traffic shaping performed on the following protocols: HTTP, RDP, GRE,
PPTP, SIP and IAX. Obviously I would like to have highest priority set
for voice packets so much so that the general http traffic does not impede on
the voice packets. I would like to have ample bandwidth available for RDP
so that I am able to connect to a remote site and not have too much lag but
ample enough that most tasks can be done. HTTP traffic would possibly
have the lowest priority of all the protocols that I have listed. So to
clarify priority would be something such as this: 1. IAX 2. SIP 3. GRE 4. PPTP 5. RDP 6. HTTP I have a linux gateway that I will use for performing the
traffic shaping and is setup in the following way:
-------------
------------
---------
| ADSL | <---------->
| LINUX | <----------> |
LAN |
-------------
------------
--------- I plan to have the ADSL router forward all traffic to the
linux gateway using something similar to a BIMAP rule where all incoming and
outgoing traffic is made to appear to come from the public IP address. I
welcome any and all suggestions but would possibly prefer the most elegant of
solutions J Many thanks in advance Rangi |
