Subject: Best userspace tool to set maxrate for an interface
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2016 16:32:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160310143230.GA32113@office.Home> (raw)
Hi John,
I would like to have a standard userspace tool to set the max ratelimit
of an interface.
If you remember, we added [1] a dcb netlink attribute
(DCB_ATTR_IEEE_MAXRATE) under DCB_CMD_IEEE_SET.
The natural place for it is in lldpad/dcbtool. The maxrate setting is
not part of the 8021Qaz spec, therefore it is a bit different from the
other ieee attributes. So I'm not sure it is a good place.
Where do you think it should be added?
Thanks,
Amir
