Finally having time to fiddle with the revised traffic shaper I find myself unsure about how to combine bandwidth caps with queue weights. I have capped ftp-traffic to/from ftp-server on LAN to 185/45kB/s (down/up) by creating two pipes for this - and verified that it's working. I also wish to give ftp-traffic a lower weight than other traffic in case of bandwidth congestion. Since my real bandwidth is 207/57kB/s I have created two additional pipes reflecting these bandwidths for weighing different traffic against the full bandwidth. As far as I understand queues are only weighed against other queues in the SAME pipe? So how do I weigh ftp-traffic which is pipe 1-2 against all the other traffic which lies in pipe 3-4? If two pipes have nearly identical bandwidth are the queue weights then measured against each other in any way? ...or do I have to throw all traffic in the same queues and stick with weights alone to achieve any weighing? Thanks in advance ...and thanks again, Manuel, for your work! /Martin |
