NOTE: It would have helped a lot if you had told us which interface connects to the internet. The interface that faces the internet is specified in the "tc qdisc add" command line and the data going out on that interface is egress. What comes in on that interface is ingress and uses a policer because incoming packets cannot be shaped. Look at the WonderShaper for an example: http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.cookbook.ultimate-tc.html There is no "ingress qdisc". Well, maybe IMQ makes one possible; I don't know. You cannot affect the rate from one interface to another except using iptables rate limiting for the FORWARD chain. In the following, eth1 is the external interface and eth0 is internal: You can add a computer to your network that does nothing but shaping. It connects to the internet via eth1 and then transparently passes all packets on to your internal network via eth0. Google proxyARP and read this part of the howto: http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.bridging.html WARNING: I don't think you really want a proxyARP setup, but it can shape on both interfaces, which means you shape on eth0 to accomplish something similar to an ingress qdisc and you shape egress on eth1. gypsy _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
