Hi Everyone, This is a simple question but I don't understand why the below tbf is not working as expected by throttling traffic to 5kbps
If I throttle a PC's traffic using the below when traffic exceeds 5kbps packets start getting dropped (as they should) but all traffic gets dropped. not just the bit over 5kbps. TC="tc add dev ppp0" $TC parent 8001:2 handle 2: tbf rate 5kbps latency 50ms burst 1540 I can see the "dropped" counter increasing, the overlimits counter stays the same and there is a "backlog" counter with 21p or similar each time which also stays the same. To get traffic working again I have to delete the qdisc and add it again. What am I doing wrong ? This is a Kubuntu machine running 2.6.14 kernel, the tbf is a leaf qdisc for a WRR class. Thanks in Advance Lee p.s. if anyone can explain what the backlog is, I can't find it in the docco. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
