[LARTC] Minimum System Requirements?

["ambitious_llama" <ambitious_llama@rogers.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 4173 bytes --]

I'm new here and to mailing lists in general so apologies in advance for
breaches in etiquette. I respond well to constructive criticism.

I'm curious what kind of hardware requirements are needed for effective
traffic shaping and control.

For example, could a P200 with 48MB RAM handle limiting, shaping,
NATing, and firewalling traffic from 5 - 6 clients on a 1.5Mbps/192kbps
cable line?

Thanks!

Subject: [LARTC] IMQ page

The IMQ page (http://luxik.cdi.cz/~patrick/imq/) has some rather obvios
problems in the examples used. I wrote Patrick McHardy without getting
an answer (yet) so I tought this was a good place to ask. Does anybody
know how to contact him about this?

Stef,
I ve tried just as you described earlier=2E=2E
When using HTB qdisc, 10 hosts borrowing from the same parent results in
unfairness=2E When host 1 open about 10 tcp connections, as soon as host
2=

request for more bandwidth from parent, host 1 wont decrease the
speed=2E

But, when i only try to attach 2 hosts to the same parent, it succeed!
Host 2 get the requested bandwidth even if host 1 start 20
connections=2E

Could you analyze this for me ?

Regards,
Rio Martin=2E

You can try with ttcp tool.
