RE: [LARTC] Modifying traffic shaping rates according to the amount ofactive users

["Flechsenhaar, Jon J" <Jon.J.Flechsenhaar@boeing.com>]

Based on your requirements I would use HTB.

 

Ceil (the maximum borrowed rate) HTTP traffic to 80% of your bandwidth in one class.  In the other class ceil rate to 20%.  If HTTP needs more bandwidth or SMTP they can borrow between each other. 

 

    Example:

        40% SMTP

        60% HTTP

 

- HTTP class will loan its additional bandwith to the SMTP class based on the parent class rate.

initial parent 100 kbps        Borrowing

class 1 - 80 kbps         -     40

class 2 - 20 kbps         -     60

 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [LARTC] Modifying traffic shaping rates according to the amount ofactive users

Hi,

I'm trying to divide my bandwidth between different 
services, but I'd like to take into account the number of active 
users.

For example, l want divide my bandwidth between HTTP and SMTP and 
guarantee HTTP 80% of the bandwidth. 

However, I have many users on my 
system (tens of thousands) and if only 1% of my active users are using HTTP (and 
the other 99% SMTP), I'd like somehow to change the HTTP rate to a lower 
limit.

Is there any way to do it automatically, assuming that each user 
has a different IP? 

Thanks,
