List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 21 Feb 2010 08:18:04 -0000 Hi, I've used ipfw and Dummynet as well as ipfw + DSCP recognition patch and pf/altq to simulate Internet and MPLS WAN environments for several years. All of my setups have run under VMWare, which for many reasons isn't ideal. I would like to collapse all of these VMs into one FreeBSD box using jails and vimages. Does any FreeBSD branch / vimage release combination support separate pf AND ipfw configurations per jail? I need ipfw+pf/altq for HFSC queuing to simulate the queueing effects of MPLS provider edge and core routers. I'm hoping the latest 7.2-STABLE-201001 snapshot will work. The DSCP recognition patch for ipfw that I rely on doesn't seem to work with 8.0. If 7.2 won't work for my needs, but 8 or 9-CURRENT will, is anyone aware of an updated ipfw DSCP patch? I haven't seen anything on Google or the freebsd-ipfw mailing list. Thanks for your time, Jim
