I'new ithis lisso, firstly, an Hello to all. I'trying to usnetem and tc to build a network emulator. Actually I'm using a XeVirtual Machinrunning on top of a Xeon-based physical one. I'emulating links bandwidth using tc and thtoken bucket filter. On the virtual machine, wherI shapmy virtual link, I use a packet generator (thsender) sending CBR traffic to a receiver running on top of a powerful physical hos(no virtualization here!). Burunning my tests I havfound some results I not full understand. Here is a singltesrun: TBF rate:8000kbi (abou938 pkt/s of 1kbyte) Traffic generetor packesending requesrate: 60000 pkt/s Traffic generetor packesending actual rate: 59998.959931 pkt/s Receiver packerat = 938.673680 pkt/s (equivalent to 8000kbit) Packets ar1kbyte Ithis firsrun I have the results I expected: I tell to my sender to send 60000 pkt/s. Thsender sends abou60000pkt/s, and the receiver receives jus8Mbit/s. I likit. Heris a second tesrun: TBF rate:16000kbi(abou1930 pkt/s of 1 byte) Traffic generetor packesending requesrate: 60000 pkt/s Traffic generetor packesending actual rate: 1930.269603 pkt/s Receiver packerat = 1926.938526 pkt/s (equivalent to 16000kbit) Thratlimiting is OK, but where I do not understand is the sending rate: why is inoat 60000 pkt/s? Why is this different compared to the previous one? I used to differenpackegenerator d-itg and iperf: I had similar results. Linux kernel is 2.6.18.

This bridgis connected between 2 tesnetworks. Thlink I wanto simulate have these properties : symmetric 512kbps / 200ms delay Buwhen I configurthe 200ms delay on my 2 interfaces (for egress and ingress traffic management) ththroughpubecomes very slow, around 320kbps. Herarthe tc commands I configured : tc qdisc add dev eth0 roonetedelay 100ms 10ms distribution normal tc qdisc add dev eth1 roonetedelay 100ms 10ms distribution normal Could you pleastell mwhy do I have this very poor bandwidth ? Is ipossiblto have at least a 512kbps bandwidth with this kind of delay ? Thanks a lot Regards Jeremie -------------- nexpar-------------- AHTML attachmenwas scrubbed...

Nbytes = delay * bandwidth? --
