Re: ipfw: bandwidth limiting
Hello Wojciech
Sorry for the delay but in the past I was very busy. I use now the folowing:
$ipfwcmd pipe 1 config bw 80kByte/s
$ipfwcmd add pipe 1 ip from any to 192.168.10.0/24{100-254} via em1
$ipfwcmd queue 1 config pipe 1 weight 1 mask dst-ip 0x
$ipfwcmd add queue 1 all from any to 192.168.10.0/24{100-254} via em1
I expect that all hosts are targed with the ip address 192.168.10.0/24,
from .100 to .254. Is that correct? As far as I can see it works like
expected but I'm not 100% sure. I'm right?
Kind regards,

I'm not sure it works. When I do a large download which takes long and

(and reduce the bandwidth from the first one). Is that correct?
your example limits it all to 80kB/s but does no traffic management. so
it may get the same rate (half by half) or may not.
do
$ipfwcmd pipe 1 config bw 80kByte/s
$ipfwcmd queue 1 config pipe 1 weight 1 mask dst-ip 0x
$ipfwcmd add queue 1 ip from any to 192.168.10.0/24{100-254} via em1
this will limit them to 80kB/s and perform fair-sharing based of hosts.
for example if one user on one computer will start 100 downloads, and
other on other computer will start 1 download, this will ensure that
first user will not takeover most bandwidth.

Bandwidth limiting with ipfw and dummynet
I'd like to limit him to 384Kbit/sec.Can someone help me get bandwidth limiting working? I've tried all the examples I could find via google but none of them work. My roomate is frequently uploading stuff to his office, and when he does, it completely saturates our outbound link and makes everything very pokey. His IP address is 10.0.2.195 and we've got FreeBSD set up as a router for our cable modem, with natd. I added the pipe to limit the bw: ipfw pipe 1 config bw 384Kbit I added a rule for his IP: ipfw add 10 pipe 1 tcp from 10.0.2.195 to any Doing ipfw show doesn't show any packets ever matching that rule. # ipfw show 00010 00 pipe 1 tcp from 10.0.2.195 to any 00015 00 pipe 1 tcp from any to 10.0.2.195 00050 21745 18784920 divert 8668 ip from any to any via dc0 00100 8 1036 allow ip from any to any via lo0 00200 00 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 00300 00 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any 65000 44051 37589386 allow ip from any to any 65535 00 deny ip from any to any Is the natd divert rule somehow interfering? -jsd- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Look at the network traffic. If you're getting dropped packets, those will be obvious from the retransmits. If not, you'll be able to see what is actually controlling the speed. I suppose the kernel could be limiting how it sends ACKs. I suggest Ethereal for this kind of thing. It has a lot of nifty features that make it easy (i.e. it automagically flags retransmitted packets). -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I would assume that pf is sending ICMP source quench messages to the sending machine to avoid overflowing its queues. If it's proactive in doing this, it would never overflow, except in the case where the queue is so short that it can't reply with a source quench fast enough. To me, this would be expected behaviour. A little packet sniffing should show whether this is what is actually happening or not.

Packet drops and queue length upon bandwidth limiting in PF
Hi friends, I am a relative newbie, so please don't flame me if my question doesn't make sense. In a network experiment to determine appropriate length of router buffers, I am using pfctl on FreeBSD 5.3 to limit the bandwidth to 100 Mbps on a 1 Gig link and limit the queue to 240 packets, and I use iperf for sending out data. Connection is maintained between two routers running FreeBSD 5.3, connected by a 1 Gig link. I monitor on sender the pfctl and iperf statisitcs. As I see the iperf throughput go down from 94 Mbps to 50 Mbps and then rise again in accordance with the classic sawtooth curve of TCP, it is clear that there must have been a packet drop, but "pfctl -s -queue -v -v" at the sender shows 0 losses and 0 drops. Moreover, the queue length as reported never overflows. Even netstat shows 0 retransmissions! I tried this with queue lengths of 50, 100, 240, 10 and 5. Only when queue length is on the order of 5 or 10 do I see packet drops in pfctl report (and also retransmissions in the netstat report); however, since I have limited the bandwidth and the outgoing traffic is shaped by this limitation, it is clear that there must be some packet losses in other cases as well. So, I tend to think that some other queueing is occuring apart from the ALTQ, and drops are occuring there. If so, how can I obtain those statistics? Thanks a lot for your help!

ipfw dummynet bandwidth limiting questions
I've had some trouble getting ipfw to behave as expected. I've got a ipfw box sitting as a firewall and traffic shaper in bridge mode. It's working great for the most part but I'm having trouble getting some specific behavior to work right. I'm currently limiting all outbound streams to 1.5mbits, and this works great. However, I'd also like to setup an overall cap for all traffic to run at 25mbits. I can only get one or the other of these rule/pipe combos to take affect at any given time. I must be missing something obvious: The rules in questions are as follows: add 420 pipe 420 tcp from $slb_www 80 to any pipe 420 config bw 1500Kbit/s queue 35 mask dst-ip 0x buckets 1024 add 440 pipe 440 tcp from $slb_www 80 to any pipe 440 config bw 25Mbit/s queue 100 'ipfw show' shows zero hits on rule 440, it sure seems like it should work. Also, is it possible to increase the hash table size beyond 1024? Practically speaking, does anyone have any experience doing trafic shapping at gige rates? The property behind this box is growing rapidly and we expect to saturate fe in a few month. I'd appreciate if you could cc me in response. -- Kelsey Cummings - [EMAIL PROTECTED] sonic.net, inc.

Network bandwidth limiting?
I'm trying to replace an HP-UX workstation with an Athalon based GreeBSD machine, This machien is an Amanda tape server. The FreeBSD machine is a couple of orsers of mafnitude faster than the HP-UX machin, yet I;m having problems with losing network conections during the backup sessions. The Amanda clients are not tolerant of this, and I lose the backup session. I'm susecting a networking probem. The network is a simple 10base2 cable, and the FreeBSD machine has always been an Amanda client, which worked without a problem. I'm wondering if I'm not runing into a deliberate rate limiting issue on the FreebSD machine. If for instnace I "ping -f" it, I get a bunch of lsot packets, and a console message about limiting ping response times.

Re: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter
May be /usr/ports/sysutils/ipa is the answer to your problem. Quote from port description: ipa(8) allows to make IP accounting (network accounting) based on FreeBSD IPv4/v6 Firewall (including IPFW2), OpenBSD Packet Filter and IP Filter accounting rules on FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. It supports limits for accounting rules and limits events as "limit is reached", "reached limit is expired", etc. It understands time intervals like "end of day", "end of week", "end of month", etc. ipastat(8) is a viewer for IP accounting database made by ipa(8).

RE: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter
The question is, are they charging you for total bandwidth used, or some real time rate limit? When you use bandwidth shaping, you can reduce your rate, but that will just spread things out. So if they are charging you for total bytes moved, then you would have to do some math to figure out what that breaks down to in Mbps, and put a throttle in to that rate. I'm not sure what Mike means by packets already traversing the network. If you shape your bandwidth, it's not like all those packets just pile up at your server's front door, waiting to get in. The IP protocol will pause within itself to not exceed your defined bandwidth. -Daniel -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Hari Bhaskaran Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 6:24 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter > Hari: > > I think you are going to find that rate-limiting at the box won't > provide any fiscal relief.
