[LARTC] Traffic Control 'The Next Generation'

[bert hubert ahu@ds9a.nl]

<PRE>Werner Almesberger announced this week 'tcng':

 To get things rolling, I, with help from Milena Mondini, have defined a
 language that should be able to express most current traffic control
 configurations, and I've started implementing a translator to the &quot;old&quot;
 tc syntax:
 
 <A HREF="ftp://icaftp.epfl.ch/pub/linux/tcng/tcng-0s.tar.gz">ftp://icaftp.epfl.ch/pub/linux/tcng/tcng-0s.tar.gz</A>
 
 Note that the translator is still next to useless, because it only
 supports a very small number of traffic control elements and parameters.
 Also, some parameters will need special handling in the language (e.g.
 rsvp's &quot;ipproto&quot;). I'm making this release mainly to gather feedback on
 the configuration language.

Please look at it and provide him with your ideas!

Regards,

bert hubert
