[LARTC] Avoid dropped packets

[LARTC] Avoid dropped packets

[Gastón]

I´m shaping with htb with a kernel 2.4.25 compiled with PSCHED_CPU. What i´m
noticing (in mrtg) is that traffic coming in to eth0 (internet side) is much
bigger than eth1(Lan side).
I think this is due to packets being dropped right? In this case, is there
any way to avoid this? because right now traffic coming from the router is
being wasted right?

This is the output of tc:

 tc -s class show dev eth1

class htb 1:2 root rate 1408Kbit ceil 1408Kbit burst 3401b cburst 3401b
 Sent 90714750 bytes 136654 pkts (dropped 0, overlimits 0)
 rate 181452bps 285pps
 lended: 15521 borrowed: 0 giants: 0
 tokens: -27837 ctokens: -27837

class htb 1:30 parent 1:2 leaf 30: prio 0 rate 1280Kbit ceil 1408Kbit burst
3237b cburst 3401b
 Sent 90379104 bytes 136761 pkts (dropped 18479, overlimits 0)
 rate 181450bps 284pps backlog 107p

Thanks for your help.

Packet dropping is normal if you are going to shape traffic, but that is not
so significant,
in your case there is quite big number if dropped packets, but normal
anyway.
thi can be because you are shaping udp traffic, which do not have rate
controll ability.

you should either pass all udp packets, either ignore wasted traffic.
