Hi all I would like ask about esfq http://www.ssi.bg/~alex/esfq/ in devil-linux. Is there any chanse devil-linux will suport esfq queing? best regards Konrad Komada |

Esfq is now supported by PLD Linux distribution http://www.pld.org.pl/ and http://www.pld-linux.org/ . This kernel module add unique funcjonality to kernel, which is makeing better suitable for firewalling and traffic shapeing. PLD Linux is very good and very secure distribution. This is the biggest distribution on the world whitch is based on rpm package system and in my opinion is the most secure (exept devil-linux :)). You can take this kernel patch from PLD if you want only maintained projects because PLD care and maintain this esfq. This is separate kernel module and do not competition with SFQ. ESFQ is based on SFQ so it is almost the same but with ESFQ we can do more :) For example if we compare funcionality sfq and esfq: #SFQ tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:10 handle 10: esfq hash dst perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:20 handle 20: esfq hash dst perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:30 handle 30: esfq hash dst perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:40 handle 40: esfq hash dst perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:50 handle 50: esfq hash src perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:60 handle 60: esfq hash src perturb 10 #ESFQ tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:10 handle 10: sfq perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:20 handle 20: sfq perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:30 handle 30: sfq perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:40 handle 40: sfq perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:50 handle 50: sfq perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:60 handle 60: sfq perturb 10 Please let me know what dou you think about it.

If I may put in my $0.02... For those who do not know, ESFQ is based on SFQ (Stochastic Fairness Queue). It EXTENDS/ENHANCES (hence the "E") SFQ by allowing a per IP address queue, as opposed to a by "session" queue. In principle, it would be an ace! A great "auto-magic" bandwidth management tool. It is my belief that ESFQ was droped from further development because: 1 - its inability to be scaled to a large froup of users. 2 - Though it mathematicaly splits bandwidth equaly, it does so with large queues, which degrade latency for real time apps (VoIP, Games, etc). I played with ESFQ extensively. I even had a Devil Linux patch ready. The results that I posted above are from personal experience. You will find a loyal following of ESFQ admins, but the target audience is SMALL networks (up to 10 nodes). In such scenario, ESFQ truly is VERY efficient and requires little configuration. I gave up ESFQ and turned to a more arduous path with multiple queues and HTB. It gave me much finer control of my network and the ability to dinamicaly prioritize traffic. I hope this helps, Peter On Thu, 2004-12-23 at 21:44 +0100, kk...@la... wrote: > Hi all > > I would like ask about esfq http://www.ssi.bg/~alex/esfq/ in devil-linux. > Is there any chanse devil-linux will suport esfq queing? > > best regards > Konrad Komada > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide > Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users. > Discover which products truly live up to the hype.
