This is targetted at ppl in this list that uses linux's TC to provide QoS solution for bandwidth control for Broadband users. I talked to one local ISP in my area and they use Packetteer to control traffic at the exchange before it reaches the customer. According to him, one reason for using packetteer is not because it's more powerful or anything, just simpler. AFAIK, it should be different, packetteer uses/has TCP windowscaling (IIRC) while there isn't a Linux solution for getting some kind of dynamic TCP windowshaping to work. (Correct me if I am wrong) The other question is, normally ISPs will have huge Queue on their Modems/ in this case Packetteer). How does one go about creating a _queue_ under Linux using TC? How does one configure that queue? and how can I define how big that queue is? ISP ppl, I hope you can answer me and let me know how it is done.
