Hi Rangi,
Bandwidth ist important, but VoIP needs more than this. Voice traffic needs low latency of packets. That's why traffic shaping maybe not lose your problem. in this a HFCS queuing descipline is used instead of HTB, because this can separate between bandwidth and delay. For more Information about this can you find here: http://linux-ip.net/articles/hfsc.en/ bye Simo Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Rangi Biddle Gesendet: Sonntag, 6. Mai 2007 22:15 An: lartc@mailman.ds9a.nl Betreff: [LARTC] Traffic Shaping Dear List, I am wanting to perform some traffic shaping as the subject of this email suggests. What I am wanting to do is this; I would like to have traffic shaping performed on the following protocols: HTTP, RDP, GRE, PPTP, SIP and IAX. Obviously I would like to have highest priority set for voice packets so much so that the general http traffic does not impede on the voice packets. I would like to have ample bandwidth available for RDP so that I am able to connect to a remote site and not have too much lag but ample enough that most tasks can be done. HTTP traffic would possibly have the lowest priority of all the protocols that I have listed. So to clarify priority would be something such as this: 1. IAX 2. SIP 3. GRE 4. PPTP 5. RDP 6. HTTP I have a linux gateway that I will use for performing the traffic shaping and is setup in the following way: ------------- ------------ --------- | ADSL | <----------> | LINUX | <----------> | LAN | ------------- ------------ --------- I plan to have the ADSL router forward all traffic to the linux gateway using something similar to a BIMAP rule where all incoming and outgoing traffic is made to appear to come from the public IP address. I welcome any and all suggestions but would possibly prefer the most elegant of solutions J Many thanks in advance Rangi
