Generally, I prefer "tc filter" commands to "iptables -A" commands, mainly because the former are bound to an individual interface rather than to every netfilter chain call ever. :-) ________________________________________ From: lartc-owner@vger.kernel.org on behalf of Marco Gaiarin Sent: 16 March 2015 16:26 To: lartc@vger.kernel.org Subject: Re: Are there any alternatives to IFB for downlink shaping? > I now have tc doing this beautifully on the uplink traffic (I use 'action skbedit mark 1', why is this trick mentioned hardly anywhere?): but, like almost every other first time poster here :-) , I'm having no luck at all getting this working for downlink traffic. ?! Looking on google form 'skbedit' lead me to multiqueue management: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/multiqueue.txt and seems not related... can you explain better?
