Hi,
I'm admin for a small ISP (DSL and dialup), using RH Linux 9 on our servers. I'm currently shaping all traffic by marking packets according to TOS and classifying with HTB and SFQ. I thus have 6 classes, one for each TOS and have a SFQ qdisc on each of those. (this on the interface going to the internet) So far so good. Everything is working (after much grief I might add). However, I'd like to be able to do other things like managing the bandwidth. Limiting on certain connections and sharing with different contention rates. For ex. I'd like to give some DSL lines dedicated bandwidth and some shared bandwidth and some with even-more-shared-bandwidth, etc etc. and I can't see how I can do that in conjunction with the TOS classifying that I'm doing at the moment. So I'm interrested in seing how other ISPs do their shaping. If not as scripts then at least in diagram form. I find that most stuff on the net explaining this is geared towards the home user which is next to useless for me. If anybody who works for an ISP would like to post some diagrams that would be great, otherwise some links to sites dealing with this would also be great. Thanks. Regards, Tobias Skytte |
