I have implimented some of the suggestions from previous posts, with some other things that I have found online. I have noticed that when I used the 256Kbit/s bw as follows, I get dropped packets, in my drp section of pipe show. Is this normal? I noticed that without the designation of queue size, I get no dropped packets. Example: pipe 1 config bw "" queue 10KB queue 1 config pipe 1 mask dst-ip 0xffffffff queue 9KB As I asked, above,"Is this functionality common, within the parameters of the queue/pipe/bw combination, that I have?" I have also noticed that my ksim application indicates that the KByte bandwidth jumps to 31.5, or 32, which is calculated to 250 or 256. The previously listed bandwidth is less than my 256 setting. The bandwidth stays at 31.0 or less, and only sometimes jumps to 32.0. Any clarification on this is much appreciated. -- Respectfully, M.G.W.
