  • What I wanna do

    • I want to know how accurate CBQ can split the bandwidth when you use different rates and provides no weight parameter.

  • Conclusion

    • The traffic is shaped and this is allmost perfect done.

    When you provide no weight parameter, the system chooses a default one. When you execure tc -s -d qdisc, you can see that the choosen weight is equal to the rate. And this gives good results. This is also the conclusion of the other page about splitting the traffic in different classes.

  • Extra tests

    • I deleted the qdisc 20: and attached the classes to the parent class 10:1. The results was clear. Each class gets 50% of the bandwidth, but the total bandwidth is bounded to 100kbps. So the traffic is not splitted in the different classes.

    When you attach the filtes to 10: and put the traffic directly in 10:10 and 10:20, the bandwidth is totally not managed. Each class gets 50% of the full bandwidth (10mbit).
