[LARTC] HTB and per-connection bandwidth allocation

[LARTC] HTB and per-connection bandwidth allocation

[Michael O'Shea]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 623 bytes --]

Hi,
 
How do I allocate a guaranteed rate to each individual connection.
For example I can allocate, say 1Mb, to all HTTP traffic by defining the
appropriate class & filter. In this case, if I have one connection it will
get all 1M; if I have 100 then each connection will get ~ 10k. But supposing
I want to allocate 10k per individual connection regardless of the number of
connections - so if I have only one connection it gets 10k...20 get 20*10k
and if I go above 100 any extra connections are dropped. This allows a
guaranteed level of service per connection.
I cannot see how to achieve this in HTB.
 
Thanks
Michael

hi!

imho there's an iplimit-patch (at patchomatic) - you should be able to
limit the numer of connections to 100 with this...

just a guess

Ahh yes .. so that maximum N is fixed in this way ? Hmmm
and you then need way to map active connection to free
class in HTB for example. It will not be simple because
you can't say when conversation ends (safely). So that you
will end with all classes busy.

You would have to write it yourself probably - extend iptables
connection tracking to maintain table of classids and select
classid for new connection and return it when conn is deleted.
Then simply copy this number to fwmark ...

If you really need this and can't write it you could ask
in lartc list whether someone is willing to write it (for
fun or for money).

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 344 bytes --]

Hi

http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2002q3/004977.html

I have the same problem to discuss as in the above link. I want to allocate
say X MBit per individual connection regardless of  the number of connection
. KIndly could anyonen suggest me how to proceed.
I have tried with SFq but is doesnot yeild my requirement..

Thanks,
Namitha.

With CONTRACK/CONNMARK you can get an individual mark per connection, then you 
will need to allocate dinamic qdisc/class/filter to match that mark.

Problems that i see:
-do not know if there is an easy way to know wath mark was assigned, but you 
can allways 'use the source'
-do not have experience adding and deleting qdisc/class/filter in milisecond 
basis.

Not shure at all, but i think that is possible.

If you can't think of a way to turn a connection into a class then 
search the archive for perflow - someone once started a qdisc to do this.
