Subject: [LARTC] imprecision in bandwidth measurement
Date: Fri, 05 Dec 2003 16:51:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-lartc-107064353600414@msgid-missing> (raw)

Hi,

I am experiencing a curious phenomenon. I limited the bandwidth for a 
specific client to 750KBit. It works well despite of the fact that the 
client always gets a little bit more bandwidth (around 770KBit to 
780KBit). I used different bandwidth and traffic measurement tools like 
ntop, nettimer or ipac. All show the same, a little bit more bandwidth 
than allowed. The factor by which the specified bandwidth is increased 
seems to be proportional to the specified bandwidth. But where is the 
problem. Is it only a different way of traffic measurement or is this a 
bug? Maybe, does it depend on some command arguments to create the classes?

Tilman
