Hi all, I am using IPFW and DUMMYNET to do traffic shaping on 4.6.2-R gateway (uname -a below). I have set the upload to 800Kbit/s and the download to 1500Kbit/s. Here is the relevent section from ipfw.conf.
add 500 pipe 1 ip from 192.169.91.16:255.255.255.240 to any pipe 1 config bw 800Kbit/s add 500 pipe 2 ip from any to 192.168.91.16:255.255.255.240 pipe 2 config bw 1500Kbit/s If I've read the docs correctly, the network 192.168.91.16/240 should have it's upload limited to 800Kbs it's download to 1500Kbs. However, MRTG is reporting that the upload traffic is maxing out at around 400Kbs. I have played with the upload speed and the connection always maxes out at about half of what I set it to. My questions: 1) How do I get the traffic limited to the bw I set it to? 2) What is causing this? 3) Would changing/setting the queuing method help? # uname -a FreeBSD gateway.xxxxxxxxxxxx.net 4.6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE #2: Mon Aug 19 19:06:07 MDT 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PROXY i386 Thank you for your help in this matter. ps.
