Hello! Why iptos takes only the limited set of "spec" values in ipfw2? It would be much more convenient, if "spec" could be any number. Why was it neccessary to apply such restriction? In This way it would be possible to implement flexible traffic shaping models according to the values of TOS. I've implemented netgraph node which changes packets' TOS values passed throw the interface (mark a traffic groups/clients) and ALTQ allocates a bandwidtch in compliance with ones. I know about traffic conditioners and use it on the routers which are running ALTQ. But i cannot / don't want install ALTQ on all routers upon many reasons. It would be much better to migrate from ALTQ to DUMMYNET (because of higher accuracy of DUMMYNET)... -- Andrew Degtiariov AD5898-RIPE | AD5-UANIC ad@astral-on.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ipfw" in the body of the message
