Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable To: lartc@vger.kernel.org Hi, I've read through the bigger parts of the docs, but I'm still fairly new=20 to this, so I would like to ask you for a little advice. I've set up a 266Mhz-Linux-Router running a "Bering"-LEAF distribution,=20 which provides shaping of a 2 Mbit SDSL-Line for about 90 users. We have quite a lot of P2P-users (student's dorm *g*), so the link=20 became congested quite regularly. I've set up 90 subclasses borrowing from a HTB root class. Traffic is filtered to them based on (static) source IPs. The main reason for this are the users saying: "I've paid for my share=20 of bandwidth, which should be at least xy kBps, so that's the least I=20 can expect!" Now I would like to prioritize interactive traffic for every user, too. What's the most elegant way to do this? Create 90 more classes with a=20 better priority? Isn't there a better way? Thanks for your patience, Bj=F6rn Snippe Hannover, Germany _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
