Category: Release/Branch: Bering Group: None >Status: Closed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Ernest Fontes (ef11) Assigned to: Mike Noyes (mhnoyes) Summary: Traffic shaping in Bering Initial Comment: First let me express my amazement and gratitude to all the talented developers along the path to Bering 1.0-rc4. I love open source and the creativity it encourages. I've used Bering rc3 for several months now and love it. I've poured over the documentation and bootstrapped myself enough to add and remove packages and modules, etc. I've even added the lrpstat package to my router so I have mesmerizing stripcharts of traffic. A true lava lamp if I've ever seen one! The feature I now drool over is traffic shaping. I have a family of five and we're stuck sharing a dial-up modem. Sad, I know, but actually workable. To make it more workable I'd like to shape traffic so that I can start a long download, at low priority, so that it will yield whenever interactive traffic needs some space. I tried a tcstart file under shorewall in RC3 but dropped it after getting constant error messages. I was encouraged to see mention that the RC4 included a version of tc "patched for htb (version 2)" (section 12.11 in the "Information on packages provided in the Bering..."). So I dug right in and added tc.lrp to my router and then tried the first parts of T. Eastep's script. Still the same error messages: RTNETLINK: invalid argument I know I'm not giving much detail right now but before I spend more time on this I'd like to know if it can work and if I'm anywhere close to the correct path. Thanks in advance.

I don't know how Jacques is building his rc4 kernel but I can envision you needing to load both sch_sfq and sch_htb. You may need more modules if the basic QoS capability is also modularized. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=213751&aid=630851&group_id=13751 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
