Subject: [LARTC] Thousands of classes, BW throttling and prioritizing??
Date: Fri, 04 Oct 2002 11:12:01 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-lartc-103372977201244@msgid-missing> (raw)

  Hello,

I need to limit the bandwidth to 1Mbit per user IP (and never give more) 
and inside of each 1Mbit prioritize minimum-delay traffic (video stream 
from specific servers, so I mangle TOS for packets from those). The 
problem is I need this for *thousands* of users. I am guessing thousands 
of classes are needed, but the question is, is this feasible? Could one 
machine ever handle this? How does this scale with either CBQ or HTB?

thanks,
Darko

ps. in more detail: I am trying to do this before (upstream) an ATM 
switch, which has the bw limit per user set. If I just prioritize the 
traffic before reaching the switch, other traffic still gets through and 
the switch is the one that drops the packets on its own, not knowing 
about my priorities. That's why I think I need to both shape and 
prioritize the traffic in the same point and while still on the IP level.
