So try running: flent rrul_var -H 10.111.38.60 --test-parameter bidir_streams=2 --test-parameter markings=11,13 You can also double-check the loading of the RC file by running with -v; that should make Flent print out whether it finds the file and which values it loads from it... -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Done! This time all works just fine. :-) Just one more thing. I'd like to have the marking names declared in the `.flentrc` file so that I don't have to type them every time I run a test. With that in mind, I created the ~/.flentrc file and added the following lines: [global] `marking_names=10=0x28;11=0x2C;13=0x34;15=0x3C;17=0x44;19=0x4C;21=0x54;23=0x5C` But when I run a test: `flent rrul_var -H 10.111.38.60 --test-parameter bidir_streams=2 markings=11,13` The system returns the following error: `flent: error: unrecognized arguments: markings=11,13` Looks like the flentrc file is not being read by flent. The file's permissions are as follows: `-rw-r--r-- 1 administrator administrator755 Dec 8 16:39 .flentrc` Any idea on how can I make it work? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

[Flent-users] Re: [tohojo/flent] Question about custom symbolic diffserv marking names feature (#215)
I just reviewed my notes and found the command that actually worked: `./run-flent rrul_var --test-parameter bidir_streams=5 --test-parameter markings=0x28,0x2C,0x34,0x44,0x4C --test-parameter labels='10','11','15','17','19' -H 10.111.38.60 ` All works good with the above command. It works with ./run-flent or just with the flent command. Maybe just out of curiosity would I ask what might be the problem when using the --marking-name parameter? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Yeah, should be; what version of Flent are you using? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Thanks Toke, In order to do further testing with your suggestions, first I got rid of the .flentrc file (in part because it seemed not to be properly read by flent) and inserted the values directly in the command line using the --marking-name parameter described in cf4f3da: `flent rrul_var -H 10.111.38.60 --test-parameter bidir_streams=2 --marking-name 11=0x2C --marking-name 13=0x34 --test-parameter markings=11,13` However, the parameter is not being recognized: `flent: error: unrecognized arguments: --marking-name 11=0x2C --marking-name 13=0x34` is my syntax correct? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Hmm, seems like the configuration is correct on the Flent side. However, note that the values you specify are the values of the entire TOS byte, whereas what wireshark displays is only the DSCP field. So you need to left-shift your values by two bits. I.e., if you want the DSCP field to be 0x28, you need to set the marking to (0x28 << 2) == 0xa0... 0x28 >> 2 is 0x0a, so this seems to be consistent with what you're seeing :) -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
