Are you sure you are marking packets correctly *both* ways? Just because
they are being marked in one direction, doesn't mean that they are being
marked in the other direction.

If you add an iptables rule to LOG your traffic on that interface, then
you will be able to see the mark value.

Otherwise, if you're seeing traffic in the root class but not in the
leaf class, then that would imply that there is something wrong with the
filter.

Andrew 

If you see my first post you will find the filter rule I use to insert the
packet in each flowid according to its IPMARK. 

The marks is performed by these four lines:

/usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -m mark ! --mark 0 \
	-j IPMARK --addr dst --and-mask 0xffff --or-mask 0x20000
/usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -m mark --mark 0 \
	-j IPMARK --addr dst --and-mask 0xffff --or-mask 0x0
/usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -m mark ! --mark 2 \
	-j IPMARK --addr src --and-mask 0xffff --or-mask 0x0
/usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -m mark --mark 2 \
	-j IPMARK --addr src --and-mask 0xffff --or-mask 0x40000

and since it is working for eth0 I assume they are correct for both
interfaces.

The script does the same thing to both eth0 and eth1 interfaces.

One extra detail is: this setup was working (just as it is for eth0) until
two weeks ago when then we created the vlans and splited the traffic among
them.

This is a problem! 

If I run: iptables -I FORWARD -o eth1 -j LOG
I see NO traffic at all!! Nothing!!

But: iptables -I FORWARD -o vlan+ -j LOG
gives me tons of logs!!

iptables only see the traffic through vlans and not through eth1.

The same for tcpdump!!

BTW "mark 2" is there in the iptable LOG.
IN=eth0 OUT=vlan3 SRC=...blablabla ... ACK PSH URGP=0 MARK=0x2

But where can I find IPMARK??

I believe that. I just can not see what is wrong!!

I have to admit I've never played with vlans and iptables, so I was just
guessing based on non-vlan experience.

Stupid question - can you not just attach your qdisc to the vlan
interface and mark the traffic on the vlan interface as well, as if it
was eth1?

Alternatively, if the root qdisc is seeing all the packets but it's the
marking that's not working, then can you not just mark on the vlan
interface rather than eth1?

>then can you not just mark on the vlan interface rather than eth1?

Andrew is right. Thats the best option. Ethy, just change eth1 to vlan+
in following rules:

/usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -m mark ! --mark 2 \
	-j IPMARK --addr src --and-mask 0xffff --or-mask 0x0
/usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -m mark --mark 2 \
	-j IPMARK --addr src --and-mask 0xffff --or-mask 0x40000

You mean "tc qdisc add dev vlanX ..." + "iptables ... -j IPMARK ..." ??

No. This must not be done. I have now 6 vlans (3 for IPv4 and 3 for IPv6)
each pair to one ISP. The only way I know (if you guys know another way,
please advise) to shape *_global_* aggregated traffic for each client is to attach to eth1 an not to individual vlans.

Could you use an IFB device? Or possibly even IMQ?

IFB?? 

it may be a good way out.
Do you know any discussion list or forum for it? 
I just read a few sites and have some questions.

This list is probably a good place to start. There doesn't seem to be a
huge amount of information around for it, but I got a good response from
the author when I contacted him with a question a while back.

You could do it this way:

1) make sure ifb is modprobed and interface ifb0 is up

2) redirect outgoing traffic on each vlan interface to ifb0

tc qdisc add dev $DEV root handle 1: htb default 1
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 100mbit
rc filter add dev $DEV protocol ip parent 1: prio 4 u32 \
  match ip dst 0.0.0.0/0 flowid :1 \
  action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0

... where $DEV is vlanX, vlanY ...

3) Add shaping on ifb0 just like you did earlier on eth1.

Hi Marek

I thing we will only change the place of the problem. It will move from

As stated by Grant Taylor in another post, the problem is my filters are
not redirecting packet to the flowids because "protocol ip" leads to
false. This should be someting like "protocol ieee802.1q".

I could not find such protocol parameter (or something that replaces it)
and tc filter demands a "protocol foo" I think due to my u32 classifiers.

It'll be ok, because you'll be redirecting traffic from vlan
interface not eth1 interface. TC will see traffic without extra
vlan tag.

I use such setup to aggregate and shape traffic from many ppp
interfaces (PPPoE sessions) and it works ok. TC u32 filters properly
classify ip packets. Im my case redirection occurs on ppp interfaces,
not vlan interfaces but that's analogous.

I see no tc command doing this in you example in your previous post.
Is there a missing command?

That's the way ifb works. Example of ingress shaping that uses "action

The IPMARK target controls the nfmark (MARK= field).

Once the traffic is in side of a VLAN tag (on the raw device), filters 
will not match the traffic the say way that it did.  -  Try applying 
your filters to the VLAN sub-interface.

This is because the traffic is no longer IP traffic in side of Ethernet 
SNAP frames, but rather VLAN tagged frames that contain Ethernet SNAP 
frames.

Are you wanting to give one VLAN on a given raw interface more priority 
than another?

you mean: 

tc filter add dev vlanA ... match mark client1
tc filter add dev vlanB ... match mark client1
tc filter add dev vlanC ... match mark client1
...
 
for each client?!?!?! the will be hundreds!!

Doesn´t it imply having "tc {class,qdisc} add dev vlan[A-Z]" or " 
tc {class,qdisc} add dev eth1" will do?

Nope. The vlans are to other ISPs. Each ISP demands 2 Vlans (IPv4+IPv6).
I need to shape global traffic from/to each client no matter which ISP
he/she is using.

Is that a way to use instead of "protocol ip" use something like
"protocol 0x8100"??

What is the general form of "protocol ip" (if there is one)?
Some "u32 match" perhaps??

shaping vlans - revisited

[Ethy H. Brito]

Hi All

I posted on 6th january about shaping vlans and got the answer bellow.

I may be wrong but I did some tests and it seems to me the the answer is not
correct.

I have this setup (partial):
The router where these rules are set is a border passthru router
(eth0=inner , eth1=outer interface with dozens of vlans attached).

/sbin/tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:23 classid 1:2345 htb prio 1 \
	rate 201kibit ceil 2024kibit
/sbin/tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1: pref 3 \
        u32 match mark 0x2626 0x0000ffff \
        flowid 1:2345

/sbin/tc class add dev eth1 parent 2:23 classid 2:2345 htb prio 1 
	rate 201kibit ceil 2024kibit
/sbin/tc filter add dev eth1 protocol ip parent 2: pref 3 \
        u32 match mark 0x2626 0x0000ffff \
        flowid 2:2345

The vlans are attached only to eth1.

I can see the counters increase (tc -s ...) for classid 1:2345 (eth0) but
they are zero for classid 2:2345 (eth1 - which the vlans are attached in)

If the first answer to my last post is correct (shaping ethX will
automatically shape its attached vlans - which is the behavior I want)
what is wrong with this setup?

Hi,

Traffic going out throu vlan interfaces will get shaped by qdisc on
the base interface. If you add qdisc on both ethX AND ethX.Y, then
traffic will be shaped on both.

If you want to do selective per vlan shaping then add qdiscs to ethX.Y
interfaces.

Are you seeing any traffic on root class on eth1? What's the output of
following commang:

tc -s -d class sh dev eth1|grep -A 5 'root'
