Hi, >What exactly happens if the sum of the children classes rate is bigger >than the parent's? I would say that in most cases it would be a misconfiguration, especially if you have more layers of HTB classes. The bw you configure with rate is not going to be reserved properly if you do not respect the rule rate(parent)>=Sum of rates(children). Anyway, the parent node does not throttle the children classes. Parents are there mainly to allow borrowing and sharing between sibling/descendant classes. >What if the majority of these classes are using less than the minimum >rate established (eg. 0kbps)? Why should this be a problem? In this case a class simply uses less than what it has been allocated. Depending on your configuration, other classes would probably be able to borrow more.
