Re: [LARTC] Setting bandwidth to unlimited

[Andreas Unterkircher <unki@netshadow.at>]

Make a filter which sent the traffic to an none existing class id. This
traffic will not apply to any class rule and will not be shaped. In fact
the only qdisc which is then limiting the traffic (and you can't avoid)
ist the root qdisc of the interface.

Cheers,
Andreas
