All,
Apologies if my searching through the list archive has been
insufficient.
I'm curious: in looking at the documentation for delay pools of
delay_class 5, the only parameter listing for class 5 is the "tag"
parameter. I understand the implication for this, the "tag" is
returned from an external ACL helper coded/defined elsewhere. What
I'm
curious about is the bytes/sec bandwidth specifications for class 5.
Poking through the source code, I'm not clear on whether we're
supposed to either:
- Specify bandwidth parameters class 5 delay pools along with the
tag
("delay_parameters X mytag N/M"),
- Somehow have bandwidth settings defined by the tag itself,
- Rely on some default setting for bandwidth specifications
Could someone shed some light on this?
None of the above.
The field labelled as "tag" is the N/M rate spec. Every unique tag
value has its own pool, just like you do not have to specify the exact
IP addresses for the other pools.
So you are wanting "delay_parameter X N/M"
Thanks for the question. I'm clarifying the docs now to make that
clearer.
