Anybody knows ? > devik See howto : mbps = 1024 kbps = 1024 * 1024 bps => byte/s mbit = 1024 kbit => kilo bit/s. mb = 1024 kb = 1024 * 1024 b => byte mbit = 1024 kbit => kilo bit. Internally, the number is stored in bps and b. But when tc prints the rate, it uses following : 1Mbit = 1024 Kbit = 1024 * 1024 bps => bit/s Stef -- stef.coene@docum.org More QOS info : http://www.docum.org/ Title : "Using Linux as bandwidth manager" _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
