As i mentioned in the email, i've already tried this. No, the HOWTO does not
tell you how to do QoS with MARKing. It tells you how to MARK the packets,
and it tells you how to route the packets, but that's not what I want: I
want QoS, not policy-based routing etc. (I'm talking about this specific
part of the FAQ:
http://www.lartc.org/HOWTO//cvs/2.4routing/output/2.4routing-11.html )
So lets say I get MARKing set up succesfully (I have enough faith in myself,
I think i've got iptables down ok :) ).. with 'tc', how do I get packets
with the MARK of 11 to flowid 1:11, mark of 12 to 1:12, and so on? What's
the tc-cmd syntax?
Perhaps i'm supposed to use this complicated route classifier of tc? Eg.
have all packets assigned a realm thru ip route, then use tc to catch these
packets? This is more complicated, and I don't wish to mess with my routing
(i'm using "route", not "ip route", are these even compatible?). Ideally i'd
like to be able to simply grab the MARKed packets with tc, let me know if
this is possible.
One additional question from my previous email that didn't get answered,
that i'd like to know about: after adding the SFQ classes to the leafs of
the HTB (see first post with the script in it), am I supposed to be
attaching the filters to the 10: handles of the SFQs, or stay the way it is,
using the HTB children eg. 1:10 ?
Many thanks!
Tim Carr

If a packet is outted in a class with a filter, the packet is also queued in
the qdisc that belongs to that class. This is normally a FIFO qdisc. But
you can replace it with a SFQ qdisc. So you don't need extra filter to put
the traffic in the SFQ qdisc. All packets of the class will also enter the
qdisc.

Down below on:
http://www.lartc.org/HOWTO//cvs/2.4routing/output/2.4routing-9.html#ss9.2
On fwmark
You can mark packets with either ipchains and have that mark survive
routing across interfaces. This is really useful to for example only shape
traffic on eth1 that came in on eth0. Syntax: # tc filter add dev eth1
protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 handle 6 fw flowid 1:1 Note that this is not a
u32 match!
You can place a mark like this:
# iptables -A PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth0 -j MARK --set-mark 6
The number 6 is arbitrary.
If you don't want to understand the full tc filter syntax, just use
iptables, and only learn to select on fwmark.
