Hello, Your mail is not clear. You state that bwm works properly for traffic over 1024 MBPS(Gigabit) but not for smaller bandwidths. At the same time you state that it works properly for 1MBPS, 2 MBPS etc. The above contradict each other. Can you please clarify. Regards Ravi -----Original Message----- From: bwm...@li...

The way I do it is to have iptables do the firewalling and bwm do only the bandwidth management. Its easier and cleaner. You have to jump back to the input queue after it exits from bwm queue.

I've had my share of hassle trying to get this to work, so I'll help you. if you have yum working, the easiest to do is to add to /etc/yum.conf these lines: [DAG] name=Dag APT Repository baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/4/en/i386/dag/ [dries] name=Extra Fedora rpms dries - $releasever - $basearch baseurl=http://ftp.belnet.be/packages/dries.ulyssis.org/fedora/linux/4/i386/dries/RPMS/ now you should be able to install RRDTool using "yum install rrdtool". once you have that, then you can compile the bwm_tools using the --with-rrdtool2 option. hope that helps.. - Oh, this is on a fedora related system - CentOS. Other systems might be different. Regards, Mark At 10:47 AM 9/1/2006, you wrote: >Hi everyone, > >I just joined this list.

Hi Mark, If you are still working on a Centos box, here are some easy steps to install BWM: config yum properly. Then install rrdtool and rrdtool-devel by giving the commands: yum install rrdtool and yum install rrdtool-devel then download the bwm_tools latest tarball, uncompress and enter the directory. give a command as under: ./configure --with-rrdtool2 followed by make and then make install This will compile and install all the executables in /usr/bin. Regards Ravi |

Hi Mark, It is quite easy to install on CentOs. I have done the same a while ago. Basically you have to install rrdtool properly. Once this is done you will be able to compile bwm.

Hi Nigel I have been experimenting with graph creation in a shell script which can be called from cron at regular intervals and put the output file so that anybody can view it over the web. I find that I have to use a DEF statement immediately followed by a CDEF and a VDEF(if required) and then by a LINE or AREA statement and only after this can I put another DEF statement. If I put multiple DEF statements followed by multiple LINE statements, it does not work. Rrdtool version is 1.2.13 and OS is centOS. Any particular reason that you can think of? Regards Ravi |

To install gcc on ubuntu do an apt-get install build-essential and it will work. I know that BWM works on an ubuntu based server because I have tried it. Although I ended up not using ubuntu in production using CentOS 4.3 instead.

Hi Mark, > I read somewhere that bwm was mostly created under Ubuntu Where'd you read this? BWM Tools was/is designed and created entirely under IDMS Linux (www.idms-linux.org). Tests & bugfixing is carried out under VMWare instances of other distributions such as Fedora, Debian & Ubuntu. However other contributors may of used different tools and environments.

Hi Mark, Bwm works very well on redhat or centos. It is better than Ipfw as it can control bandwidth by port, ip addresses, interface etc. Iptables are required for bwm as they do the marking of the packets. Forwarding on a linux box is east. Just edit the /etc/sysctl.conf and change the net.ipv4.ip_forward to 1 (enable forwarding). Ravi -----Original Message----- From: bwm...@li...

Subject: [bwm-tools-tech] what to run bwm on I read somewhere that bwm was mostly created under Ubuntu, but then I downloaded it, tried to get it working, but find out that Ubuntu 6 does not even have GCC on it, can't even find it on the CD.. Can someone tell me what distro your running on.. Does it run on FreeBSD? what does it use if it runs on BSD? Iptables as well? - maybe I'm not versed enough in BSD yet. Can someone tell me how bwm compares to ipfw on BSD? Thank you, Mark -I AM a newbie, but I have recompiled kernel and gotten ipfw to delay my pings, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to forward packets through the box. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.

Hi Nigel, I am still facing the following issues: (a) Though bwmd is running and updating the respective .dat files in /var/bwm_tools, the rrds created from these .dat files are not having any entries beyond midnight of 30 jul 2006. Any particular reason? (b) The graphs created by using size_bit counter do not go over 1Mbit. Where do I change this code so that the rrd files generated can record this properly. (c) No scripts available in the link below. Please advise. Regards Ravi -----Original Message----- From: bwm...@li...

Check out the doc directory, you can make pdf or make html to generate documentation. You're looking for the report-format option, setting this to rrd can generate rrd data. You will need to create the rrd file first though, and specify it using report-filename. Bwmd will log 4 values to the rrd every report-timeout, bytes, packets, bursted, dropped respectively. Check this script out .... http://www.linuxrulz.org/nkukard/scripts/stats.cgi .... thats a starting point to write your own cgi script which generates funky rrdtool graphs :) Let me know if you come right, I'll work on better documenting the reporting directly to rrd the first chance I get. This should serve as information for anyone who takes the time to look through the mailing list archives ;) Regards Nigel |

Hi Nigel I see from the rrd created by bwm_graph using the size_bit option, it can measure or record a max of 1Mbit only. Please clarify where to correct this from. Also I am unable to check out your script below as the file does not seem to be there. Please advise. Regards Ravi -----Original Message----- From: bwm...@li...
