Hello,

I've been using cbq's "weight" parameter to influence distribution of
excess bandwidth among sibling classes. Does htb offer something
similar?

So far I think that
- you either use priorities - then excess bandwidth is offered to higher
  priority classes first, the rest (if any) is distributed among lower
  priority classes
- or you don't use priorities - then excess bandwidth is distributed
  according to ratios of classes' rates

Am I right? Is there another way to influence distribution of excess
bandwidth among siblings? E.g. is it possible to say that class A will
acquire excess bw say 4 times faster than class B, even though class A's
rate is just half of class B's rate?

Thanks,

	pvl
