Basically what I would like to accomplish is the following: incoming/outgoing RTP streams. >From examining the HOW-TO, it appears that that you can scan the IP headers based on the U32 selector, and grep for specific identifiers. I'm sure I can figure this out for RTP. Please clarify that I'm going in the right direction with this. RTP doesn't really have a specific block of port numbers you can specify.. so I'm assuming the only way to handle this is to use this U32 mechanism. My question is, is it possible with the 2.4 kernel to setup a "borrowing" mechanism? let me explain. What I would like to do is to reserve lets say 75% of all available bandwidth. With the stipulation that if there are no rtp streams, that all other traffic can "borrow" from this reserved bandwidth. regards, -Andy Pyles _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://ds9a.nl/2.4Routing/
