29-apr Hi, I have an application to buffer UDP multicast video packets sometimes arriving in bursts over an IPsec VPN link over the internet. I'd like to create a buffer with a tc queue [tbq?] to even out the arrivals. I would like to have an egress rule setup to output at the average input rate (determined from the kernel avrate estimator). Since the video can come from multiple cameras with varied resolutions, there's no way to know the incoming data rate ahead of time. I've seen some limited information on using the avrate parameter in policing options for filters, but for my need I'd want it for shaping. Would tc work for this application? Any information to help me configure it would be appreciated. Also - if there's any examples available of how to do this it would be helpful as well. Thanks in advance.
