Ok, first of all I was trying to use PRIO + TBF because I thought it was the simpler. You suggest me HTB, which is far more flexible, and I guess flexibility goes along with more overhead. Then my question is: will HTB behave accuratetly at those rates (100-600 mbits) with moderate CPU impact? Or better yet: Has anyone tried it in a production environment?

Create another class to be the default one and let it grow up to your link's bandwidth borrowing from HTTP traffic when there is not 400 Mbps of them. Then create a couple of filters to send traffic to the correct classes and, maybe, attach a "sfq" qdisc to your HTTP and default leaves to guarantee fairness for individual connections.

[LARTC] Simple PRIO + TBF at high rates
Hi, I'm trying to slow down http traffic on Gigabit link. The outbound rates on that interface range 0 .. 400 Mbit/s and I would like to throttle accurately to any rate between these while keeping non-http traffic unthrottled. What I do is to create a PRIO qdisc with the 3 usual bands (default prio mask) and a 4th band with a TBF attached with the desired rate. Like this (for 300 mbit/s): tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio bands 4 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:4 handle 40: tbf \ rate 300mbit buffer 600kb latency 600ms tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 protocol ip u32 \ match ip sport 80 0x flowid 1:4 What it happens is that I actually get a slow-down but at rates of 200-250 instead of 300. What am I doing wrong? Javier ___ LARTC mailing list / [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
