RE: Shaping on a large scale

2009-01-30 Thread Scott Berkman
Check out Packeteer.  I used to work somewhere about that size and this
was the product we used:

http://www.bluecoat.com/products/packetshaper/

Open source you can do a custom setup with IPTables and iproute2, but it
will take some work to get the same kind of features and management
interface.  LARTC is a good reference for this kind of topic:
http://lartc.org/.  Also I'm not sure if someone has built this into any
of the firewall specific linux distros yet, so you may want to explore
those a little.

Good luck,

The scripts below will set max bandwidth on an interface to 60mbit, and 
setup a queue to shape a.b.c.d to 3Mbit. Seems to work ok for me. Its used 
on a physical server to limit bandwidth to a virtual server(s) on the physical 
server. Should work just as well on a dual-armed router/firewall shaping 
devices behind it.  You would just create more classes (1:11, 1:12, 
etc) for more clients/ips to shape and you might want to knock the 
ceiling on the default (1:30) class down to guarantee the bandwidth to the 
1:10, 1:11...classes.

They have. Many Linux appliances come with a 'Linux Wonder Shaper'
http://lartc.org/wondershaper/ or an equivalent.

In general, the Linux packet shaping infrastructure is overly powerful, if
very weakly documented - despite the LARTC efforts.

I do have to add that shaping is rarely an exact science, and that achieving
very high accuracies may prove impossible on general (timer interrupt based)
hardware & operating systems.

Stochastic results will be good however.

can I ask mtu question

2009-01-30 Thread adrian kok
Hi

What is max mtu in jumbo frame? 
ls it 9000?

Do I need to reboot the switch to take effect after
setting up it?

if it doesn't need to reboot, How can I know the
switch is running fine in this mtu 9000? eg: cisco
any tools to check?

Thank you for your help

RE: can I ask mtu question

2009-01-30 Thread Paul Stewart
Depends on the hardware - GSR's have different MTU's than 7600's for
example (and dependant on linecard too).  We use 9216 between 7206VXR
and 7606 for example.

No, the change is immediate - "show interface" will tell you among other
commands...

-48VDC summary of responses

2009-01-30 Thread Deepak Jain

Lots of folks provided very good suggestions and information. Here is a brief 
attempt at a summary. 
I only got a few sales folks hitting me up, so you are probably on your own to 
get in touch
with most of these guys.


Top recommendation:
* Eltek/Valere seemed to be the top recommendation (3:1 or 4:1), though 
customer svc is rumored to have gone downhill since the acquisition).

Large Plants: (1000A and more)
** C&C & Sageon (sageon: stand alone, not rack mount, C&C scales in 100A 
increments)

Small plants:
Argus (re: Cordex unit- management UI only works in IE, emails just fine, good 
chassis based expandability) [2:1 recommendation here]
Tyco in the lower range
Telect for unmanaged supplies/PDUs

Lorain/Realtec makes nice equipment.

Thanks to everyone for their input, I don't have much more detail from most of 
the responses
so if you want a contact who is using this gear, I can try to make the 
introduction.

Re: can I ask mtu question

2009-01-30 Thread Brad Fleming
KanREN runs Foundry (Brocade) NetIron XMR 4000's as our primary core  
infrastructure with an MTU of 9216. To make the change (this is  
Foundry-specific), we have to change some system-max settings which  
only take effect once the device has been rebooted (or at least it DID  
require a reboot in the IronWare 3.3.x days). It does NOT reboot  
immediately so you're free to make the change then perform a reboot at  
a convenient time.

Hi

What is max mtu in jumbo frame?
ls it 9000?

Do I need to reboot the switch to take effect after

if it doesn't need to reboot, How can I know the
switch is running fine in this mtu 9000? eg: cisco
any tools to check?

Thank you for your help

Keep in mind the switch is not the only device on the network with jumbo

"ping" will do.  Set the packet size larger than the normal MTU (1500) and  
see if it crosses the network intact.  If it's not working, A) the packets  
will be dropped, and B) the "oversized frame" counter (among others)  
should be clocking errors.

If you're sourcing the pings from a device that supports it, you can also 
send the large pings with the Do Not Fragment bit set.

There *is* no standard for jumbo MTU. IEEE has steadfastly refused to
standardize anything bigger than 1500 bytes.

Which standard are you referring to? AFAIK, nothing above 1500 is

FWIW, I find it easier to track this using tcpdump. I don't like
running BIND with query logging. Here's a filter that catches these,

  port 53 && (udp[10:4] == 0x0101) && (udp[20:2] == 0x)

Re: Shaping on a large scale

Bruce,
Are these broadband customer using PPPoE or L2TP?   If so, I suggest  
looking at the capabilities of your BRAS to do the work.


Per user bandwidth quotas are the nature of the game here in Australia  
and doing it at the BRAS is the way we do it.   RADIUS gives you byte  
counts and gives you the ability to pass back rate limits etc.

Most modern systems do that already (part of path MTU discovery.)  And if  
there are no routers in the path (only the switch in question), then  
there's nothing to fragment it anyway.

None that have ever been accepted.  From a quick google for manufacturer  
support, 9216 looks like the most popular number.  But, as I said, it  
boils down to the largest frame *every* device on the LAN will accept.  If  
there is a single device that only supports "9000", then that's your  
limit.  And if there's a single non-JF device in the LAN, it throws a  
wrench into the whole thing. (This appears to be one of the sticking  
points as to why IEEE won't accept the addition of JF to any specs.)

What you didn't tell him is that the kind of shaping you can do
on the BRAS heavily depends on features used and platform. :)

64k policing mostly works everywhere, for example, but isn't
all that crash hot for your clients. :)

Doing more complicated hierarchical QoS on software platforms is
doable but complicated.

Others take a multi-tiered approach - they'll buy some kit to do
P2P identification/shaping, and per-user hard shaping in case they
go over quota.

Lots of cute stuff. :)

I've never been happy with 'deinstall' fees of any sort. To me, this
is just a cost of doing business. The time necessary to remove such is

something that gets passed along. Besides, if you turn right around
and reuse this for someone else, you haven't done a deinstall and are
therefore charging the customer for work that you did not actually
perform.

There are several different ways to argue both for and against such
fees but they always rub me the wrong way whenever I see them.


Perversely these fees have gotten as far as residential broadband 
subscribers in the UK. BT Wholesale now charge a line disconnection fee, 
which is being applied retrospectively to all contracts.


On the flip side, the new WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic
