Hi,
I have a question regarding mpd PPPoE sessions.
The short question is: Is it possible to do ALTQ on mpd PPPoE sessions?
I am using FreeBSD6.1, and mpd port Version 3.18
The reason why I am asking is this (please feel free to correct me if
I'm wrong):
1) mpd uses ng_iface for PPPoE connections (ng0, ng1...ngN)
2) ng_iface can do ALTQ except for PPPoE or PPTP, based on the ng_iface mapage:
One should not turn ALTQ on ng_iface if the latter corresponds to
some tunneled
connection, e.g. PPPoE or PPTP. In this case ALTQ should be
configured on the
interface, that is used to transmit the encapsulated packets.
So basically, I can't do queue-ing on a per-PPPoE session. If I insist
on having queues,
then, I should do it on the actual interface and not on the ngN
interfaces. Is there
a sort of work-around on this issue? Has anyone tried doing ALTQ on a per-PPPoE
session?
Thanks,
Earl
