Subject: IFB and bridges
Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2011 20:15:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1323566146.3159.186.camel@denise.theartistscloset.com> (raw)

Hello, all.  This is more an "out of curiosity" question.  I'm starting
to build a test environment for all I've learned about Linux traffic
shaping over the last week.  One of the devices happens to be configured
as a bridge.  It quickly became apparent that I needed to do shaping on
the individual ports and not the bridge port.

This would be a real pain if I have lots of ports - 8 or 10 or 20
identical configurations.  Would this be an ideal use for IFB? That is,
to redirect all ports to IFB and apply one set qdiscs/classes? Thanks -
John
