[LARTC] why so fast?

[LARTC] why so fast?

[sun reflex4]

Hi,
I am doing some test to control outgoing traffic, and  I want to see if 
everything is working, but when I configure Compuetr A, and make a download 
in Computer B from A (e.g.  in Computer A Apache is installed), the download 
goes so fast(not as in the ceil or rate!), even when I make the rate & ceil 
too small, am I doing something wrong??
Example on Computer A:
   tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: htb default 19

  tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 10bps ceil 10bps
  tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:19 htb rate 15bps ceil 15bps

  tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip handle 1 fw classid 1:1

  iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -d 192.168.0.11 -j MARK --set-mark 1
#Compter B has ip 192.168.0.11

Thanx

Your setup is good, but you put all packets coming from computer A (and marked 
with 1) in class 1:1.  The problem is that this is not a leaf class because 
it has a child class.  And a non-leaf class can not transmit packets itself.  
So the packets are sended at link speed.
Solution : only leaf classes can shape traffic so make sure all packets ends 
up in a leaf class.  You can do this by removing the filter statement so all 
packets are placed in the default class.  Or change your filter statement so 
all packets marked with a 1 are redireted to class 1:19.

If you are interested, I did some tests myself.  You can find the results on 
www.docum.org.

Hi Stef,
is class 1:1 really a non-leaf class? It doesn't have any children.
I know your site, and actually it is the place, where I lerned all this 
stuff :)

Oops.  Indeed.
But you better create 1 root class and add 1:1 and 1:19 to that root class.

Ok :)

Can you check to see the tc counters to make sure the packets are ending in 
the class you want?
