[tor-relays] Understanding bandwidth rate
Hello, I'm using tor 0.2.3.25 from Debian Wheezy, the exit policy is recject *.*, I'm not using the node myself. arm shows these actual bandwidths: Bandwidth (limit: 16 Mb/s, burst: 32 Mb/s, measured: 48.6 Kb/s): Download (13.9 Mb/sec - avg: 11.3 Mb/sec, total: 211.9 GB): Upload (16.0 Mb/sec - avg: 12.6 Mb/sec, total: 237.9 GB): This is my related config: BandwidthRate 5 MB # not set in config BandwidthBurst10 MB # not set in config RelayBandwidthRate2 MB # set in config RelayBandwidthBurst 4 MB # set in config I'm a bit puzzled Why is bandwidth limit 16 Mb/s? Why bandwidth burst 32 Mb/s? Since I'm not using the node for anything else but relaying I except the bandwidth is more or less equal the RelayBandwidth limit I set. But the averages are so much higher than either the BandwidthRate and the RelayBandwidthRate? What is my problem of understanding here?

B=bytes b=bits therefore, Your config setting of 2MB = 16mb Your config setting of 4MB = 32mb On 12/10/2013 5:47 AM, Florian Lindner wrote: Hello, I'm using tor 0.2.3.25 from Debian Wheezy, the exit policy is recject *.*, I'm not using the node myself. arm shows these actual bandwidths: Bandwidth (limit: 16 Mb/s, burst: 32 Mb/s, measured: 48.6 Kb/s): Download (13.9 Mb/sec - avg: 11.3 Mb/sec, total: 211.9 GB): Upload (16.0 Mb/sec - avg: 12.6 Mb/sec, total: 237.9 GB): This is my related config: BandwidthRate 5 MB # not set in config BandwidthBurst10 MB # not set in config RelayBandwidthRate2 MB # set in config RelayBandwidthBurst 4 MB # set in config I'm a bit puzzled Why is bandwidth limit 16 Mb/s?

Re: [tor-relays] Understanding bandwidth rate
actually it's Mb, which stands for megabit. since one byte is 8 bit, 2 becomes 16 and 4 becomes 32. therfoe you shoul set your config to 250 Kb (250 Kbit * 8 equals 2000 KByte equals 2 MByte) and 500 Kb (500 Kbit * 8 equals42000 KByte equals 4 MByte). kind regards, Oli Am 10.12.2013 um 13:00 schrieb tor-relays-requ...@lists.torproject.org: > Send tor-relays mailing list submissions to > tor-relays@lists.torproject.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > tor-relays-requ...@lists.torproject.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > tor-relays-ow...@lists.torproject.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of tor-relays digest..." > Today's Topics: > > 1.

[tor-relays] Outbound Address differing from exit address
Greetings all, I'm in the process of setting up a few Exits on a Cloud provider here in Iceland (one that I used to work at actually). Since they use Cloudstack it means each address per account gets multiple inbound address per instance and share the same address for outbound traffic. I'm worried that abuse notices will be coming in for this outbound address even though I've got 80 on the exit node's IP showing the standard Tor Exit disclaimer. I've tried to set OutboundBindAddress to the outbound IP using arm but this just causes arm to complain about: "[WARN] Error binding network socket: Cannot assign requested address" Any advice would be appreciated. -J ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

Re: [tor-relays] Relay / Bridge
I apologize for the delay in responding, getting ready to move to Texas, but anyway. My original intention was to run one EC2 as a public relay and another as a bridge, subject to bandwidth throttling, however, after thinking about it for about a day (I saw your email last night) I realized that a bridge that is bandwidth throttling might be more useful than a public relay that is bandwidth throttling. So I'll fix it this evening, unless there's a reason not to. Thanks.
