[LARTC] DSMARK

[Emmanuel SIMON]

Hello,

When I try to install DSMARK, I have :
# tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 dsmark indices 64 set_tc_index
Unknown qdisc "dsmark", hence option "indices" is unparsable

all the qdisc are compiled as modules
the module sch_dsmark.o is loaded but unused


May I ask again the questions i have already asked in case of someone see
them in this mail ?

About DSMARK, I don't understand the way it works:
 - What is the (mask, Value) ? What is it used for ?
 - Does it mark the packet or the structure in the kernel ?
 - If i can mark the packet, how is it done ? Can i put only 'minimize
delay', 'maximize throughput' and so on, or can i put what i want in the TOS
field (for exemple 10110111) ?
 - Does it exist a howto only about DSMARK ?

Thanks in advance for your help
Manu

You also need a tc binary with diffserv enabled.  If you have the iproute2 
source, open the file Config, enable diffserv and recompile tc.

I can only answer the last question : not that I know.
