Hello Geeks,
So i have already posted some questions regarding this problem in here, but this time i have some other questions, wanted to know the answer
)
So i wanted to do bandwidth management/traffic shaping on my Internet link(have two internet connections), but i have some questions to ask:
- I want to know how could i for example filter some traffics using tc and iptables (e.g Peer-to-Peer,IM,Download Managers,Flash videos..) i can do filtering for known services like http,ssh,... but since these applications doesn't use one port, i am confused a little bit. I also want to do some bandwidth allocations (based on protocol) thats why i need filtering.
The other question is that currently i am using tc for bandwidth allocation and iptables for marking packets to send to these classes, am i doing it right? I mean it does work, but is it better to use for example "U32" filters for filtering?
P.S: i tried to use ClearOS in gateway mode, but it doesn't have bandwidth allocation functionality. Does anyone know if i could do bandwidth allocation in ClearOS/Endian.
Thanks In Advance
