[LARTC] Sharing bandwidth between two interfaces

[LARTC] Sharing bandwidth between two interfaces

[@ 2001-04-02 10:14 UTC (permalink / raw)]

Hello all.

I have been playing around with CBQ, cbq.init et al for a while, and
have got some impressive results. It works after all!... I have used SFQ
as the leaf queuing discipline on all my classes and created a bounded
class with the total bandwidth I wanted to share (64K), from which
unbounded subclasses borrow bandwidth. It works great.

But now I've got a problem... This setup works well when there is only
one input interface and one output interface. But my interest now is to
share the internet connection between two subnets, each one attached to
a different interface. The problem is that the 64K class must be
attached to one of the interfaces, so I think it will not work if I try
to use it from the other ethernet interface. How can I solve this? Maybe
with some type of tunneling? teql maybe?

Many thanks in advance,

Is it correct understood that you want to limit some traffic which can go out on two different interfaces, to 64K in total?

Well, although I didn't post the original message, I hope that I would like to 
do the same. To limit sum of outgoing traffic to some maximum and to 
borrow bandwidth between interfaces. 

Can anbnody confirm that it is or it is not possibile?

Yes, that's it. Sorry, my english isn't any good...

Ok... If anyone knows a way to do this I would like to know too ;-) Maybe it
is possible by shaping on a loopback interface?

Depending on what you are trying to do, channel bonding or teql
should do the trick. But I haven't tried these things out (yet)...
One more thing: channel bonding nor teql will work when those two
interfaces are connected to different ISPs. If this is the case,
only ingress policing on your local LAN interface will work.

Btw, I don't think shaping on a loopback interface will solve this
problem...

What in fact is the ingress qdisc? Accoring to the howto it limits _incomming_ bandwidth. But a basic principple of qdiscs is that they handle _outgoing_ packets. How does this make sence?

Indeed, it is normally not done, but if you want to shape incoming bandwidth, it is perfectly
possible to create a queue for incoming packets, and to do ingress policing by means of this queue.

That's what the ingress policing qdisc does...

One major application of ingress policing is only letting a limited rate of icmp or
tcp syn packets coming into your network. That will keep your network less vulnerable
for ping floods and dos attacks.

Is it also possible to take an arbitary qdisc and put in the incomming direction? Like Kevin Turner also seems to want?
