To: net@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 9 Sep 1998 18:22:02 +0200 (MET DST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I just finished the integration of dummynet and the bridging code, and now you can do bandwidth limitation at the bridging level (this means that you can put a dummynet-enabled bridge in the middle of an ethernet cable without having to reconfigure routes etc.) For those interested to try it, a floppy image is at http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ip_dummynet/picobsd980909.bin It comes up with userconfig, has pnp support, and drivers for the following cards: ed, de, fxp, vx, lnc the fxp code is untested, so if someone wants to try it out... i don't have such a card at the moment. Before you ask: since the packet filter is ipfw, at the moment you can only control IPv4 traffic -- other passes unchanged. I am considering ipfw extensions to select other traffic basing at least on the ethernet type field. (source code will be available in a few days) cheers luigi -----------------------------+-------------------------------------- Luigi Rizzo | Dip. di Ingegneria dell'Informazione email: luigi@iet.unipi.it | Universita' di Pisa tel: +39-50-568533 | via Diotisalvi 2, 56126 PISA (Italy) fax: +39-50-568522 | http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ _____________________________|______________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
