[LARTC] howto skip some traffic in TC

[nedco]

Hi 
i have one simple question 
I use HTB and i like to shape some traffic but 
i have game servers CS and diablo that generate 
to much traffic that must be with lo latency

So hire is my question:
Is there possibility traffic generated from and to game servers 
go transparently without going to any tc ( qdisc htb  class )

10x in advance

Maybe I am completely wrong, but if I remember correctly as long as you
don't "enqueue" your low latency packets more than once, it should be ok.
And for your setup maybe "prio" is a better choice than "htb", but if
the game servers don't mark their traffic correctly maybe high priority
traffic could be treated as low priority.

Check the manpage for "prio" (man tc-prio), or lartc.org for detailled
information about this classfull queuing discipline.

Hope it helps.

Yes.  Htb has a :0 class that sends at link speed.  
If you have a default class, it will catch all not-matched traffic.  So if all 
your filters are failing, the packets still ends up in a class.
