The priority effects the ratio in which extra bandwidth is shared. Something with a better priority doesn't automatically get all the bandwidth it wants before something with a worse priority, they share it on a ratio basis. You might be better off not using prio and instead just having the rate's for the classes set to the ratio you want. When prio isn't set htb uses the rate's as the ratio. Try removing the prio, and lowering the low-priority even further, say 1kbit instead of 50kbit, then when bandwidth is shared, the other classes will have 750:1 or 400:1 splitting of extra bandwidth. This way your LOWPRIO will also have to borrow for nearly all its bandwidth needs.
In your example test case, LOWPRIO was using 500kbit, so borrowing 450kbit, and you say the 750kbit class was using only the remaining 1500kbit, borrowing 750kbit. The ratios of shared ammounts definately doesn't seem to fit with the 5:1 priority's ratio, but I'm no expert on how it determines all this. I just recommend not using the prio and try using a lower rate for the LOWPRIO subclass. - Jody On 7/8/05, Gael Mauleon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > Hi, > > > > I wanted to implement some QOS on my Linux Box with HTB, but after some time > spend > > on the configuration and tests, I still don't manage to have some correct > results.
