I am having around 4K users. I have to limit each user to 70kbps bandwidth. For this, I define 4K filters and 4K classes. Each filter is matched to each ip of an user, and each class is configured for a rate of 70kbps. Then I define 4K sfq qdisc mapped to each class. It works fine. No issues. But just that creating 4K exactly similar classes with just a difference in classid, is a kind of time consuming. The same holds for filters and sfq too.
I assume you are using hashing filters for run time speed. As for loading time, in some test I did years ago using tc batch to load many rules was way way faster than a script. So if you are not already doing it try adjusting your script to produce a file with just the rules ie. no "tc" at the start of every line and load it with tc -b <filename>
Is there a simpler way of doing it?
Can't think of one - which doesn't mean there isn't - I don't really do qos seriously. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe lartc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
