I was under the impression that the weights of WFQ isnt
actually supposed to be set manually, but rather
automatically. This page has a nice picture of WFQ (I
think)

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/732/Tech/wfq/

It says: "Weight determined by:
*Required QoS (IP Procedure, RSVP)
*Flow throughput inversely proportional
*Frame relay FECN, BECN, DE (for FR Traffic)"

Only think I actually understood was "Flow throughput
inversely proportional" which is a property I am
looking for when trying to find a traffic control
implementation.
