We have 2 client bases .. Businesses which i want to allocate 70 % of the available bandwidth to and Residential which i want to allocate 30 % of the available bandwidth . This is quite easy to do with Dummynet and IPFW2 but i also want to be able to let the Businesses "borrow" from the Residential clients during the day but not at night . Aswell as each ip must be Hardcapped at different speeds according to the appropriate package I tried to use ipfw2 + dummynet and ALTQ to thusfar but a swarm of kernel panics and just misbehavings of ipfw2 which i think is due to the ALTQ kernel patch has forced me to look for another solution .. Any ideas of recommended documentation would be helpful Thanks in Advance Gideon http://www.privatebag.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
