Greetings,
I have successfully been using the Linux QoS queuing disciplines with
the bridging code (other than a few hiccups) for 8 months or so.
(kernel 2.4.17)
For QoS, look up the man pages for the 'tc' command
(the 'Linux Advanced routing and Traffic Control Howto' is
also very useful).
A queuing discipline is the last thing that a packet sees before it
hits the network card to go out on network. The bridging code just
ties the ethernet cards together, and controls which interface they go
out on.
Put the 'cbq' queues on 'eth0' and 'eth1' and all works well.
Putting an IP address on 'br0' will allow you to remotely manage the
box.
My question:
How does the bridge code 'calulate' MTU, or does it assume 1500 bytes.
The reason is that I have successfully bridged between interfaces
using the VLAN's which require the MTU on eth0 and eth1 to be set to
1504. (eepro100 cards, usingn intel's e100 driver).
The MTU on the bridge cannot be set to greater than 1500.
(An error is reported.)
