It's not yet included into the standard kernel sources, so you've got to patch them. Google should help. AFAIK: WRR automatically classifies packets either by their MAC addresses or by IP-TCP,UDP streams. On each turn every stream gets a chance to send a number of packets proportional to its current priority/weight. And thats the clue: WRR allows the streams to start with a higher priority and decrease it's priority automatically by the amount of traffic processed.

The netfilter nth patch doesn't quite do this as it a. only matches a single packet count and b. works on the rule instead the connection count. I'm thinking of something like: iptables -t mangle -I foo -m nth --every :100 -j ... where the counter is reset for every new connection. Can this be done with filters? Why not doing with htb? It has a nice burst parameter that does exactly what you want.

If I understand the htb users guide correctly, then the bursts only apply if there is the chance that they can recharge (i.e. there is some period without packet flow). But what if there is a continous packet flow because there are many concurrent connections? I'd like to favour beginning connections (not just the starting packets, but the first, say, 100 packets) _while_ there already established connections which prevent recharging of the htb bursts.
