Subject: [LARTC] Multiple shaping on a single physical interface
Date: Mon, 08 Oct 2007 04:18:05 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4709AF7D.7090703@amfes.com> (raw)
I have a Linux box connected to a simple DSL router (along with other
machines on the home network). This box is intended as an off-site
storage server for my office. Taking advantage of some rsync scripts, I
have a very simple yet complete off-site backup solution. My question
is in bandwidth management.
I want to use this box for other purposes. It has a single NIC,
connected to the switch/router. Operating within my home LAN, I should
be able to communicate with it at the typical full-duplex 100BaseT
speeds. However, when it's involved in the archive process, the DSL
connection (5M/512k) get saturated. I wanted to setup some sort of
shaping on this box to control how much of the DSL connection it consumes.
I initially went to wondershaper/ctshaper - but I realized that this is
actually going to hurt me. With ctshaper enabled, with the DSL tuned
settings of 5M/512k - I've absolutely crippled its ability to
communicate with the LAN.
How can I achieve the clean communication with the DSL, reserving some
available bandwidth for other purposes - yet leave communication with
the local network at full? Do I need to define multiple virtual interfaces?
Daniel
