Re: [LARTC] adding ingress and egress

["Soulfly" <zob_soulfly@hotmail.com>]

If you use IMQ you can should be able to send all incoming/outgoing packets
to the same egress qdisc.You can use HTB with two classes below root qdisc,
one for incoming packets and one for outgoing packets. Just a thought but
well worth trying.

There will surly be problems though and some finetuning.
Can he use iptables to separate the incoming/outgoing packets from the IMQ
device?

I don't even know if all steps are solvable with routing and filtering...
anyone?
