Recently I've been writing rules for small router (2 internal interfaces, 1 external, few services running). I've just set 1 queue for the whole inbound (1 mbit) on internal interface, so it won't get stalled by other traffic from int. net to the server itself. Essentially:altq on $if_100 cbq bandwidth 100Mb queue { if100_extbulk, \ if100_misc, if100_ack, ... other queues }
I can't parse this. If the traffic is to the server, it will be inbound. Queuing works on outbound traffic. They are distinct, and don't interact in full-duplex mode. Or are you talking about doing this on your external interface?
But then I recalled the 2nd example from PF faq, that actually used subqueues to shape traffic of inbound traffic. But ... they all had 'borrow' option - does it even have a chance to work as intended this way ?
What do you mean? If the max bandwidth isn't being used, then any one subqueue can borrow from the others, until they need it.
Am I thinking right ?
Can't tell, your post is lacking a lot of detail. -- ``I am not a pessimist. To perceive evil where it exists is, in my opinion, a form of optimism.'' -- Roberto Rossellini http://www.lightconsulting.com/~travis/ -><- GPG fingerprint: 9D3F 395A DAC5 5CCC 9066 151D 0A6B 4098 0C55 1484
