The FireBrick tries to shift packets as they arrive and not run any queues. It is not generally an endpoint for IP traffic and so buffer bloat should not be an issue. The shapers all work on predicted queue at specified speed and do not actually delay traffic (so are policers rather than shapers) but get used for bonding multiple links. _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list Bloat@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
