Hi
i think the problem is red only works when there is congestion
(queue),but the only limit on ingress is speed of kernel (no limit). RED
is not for and cannot limit traffic rate. That is why it wouldn't work
here, unless combined with something to shape the traffic rate. (tbf or
htb here)
What you might want to do is to shape traffic with htb as you did, and
use red inside htb, not to do tail-drop.
Tbf would be easier for shaping, but i don't know if combining tbf and
red is possibe. (probably not)

Oops didn't see this one before I replied.

Andy.
