Hi all,

I have a specific question about WF2Q+ included in dummynet.

I configured a box with dummynet.
Each time a user get connected, a bandwidth is allocated to him thanks to 2
pipes (burst limit "in" and "out").
According to what I understand of WF2Q+, queues equalize the bandwidth in a
pipe.
What I would like is getting the total bandwidth equalized between the
pipes.

Sometimes I have users using a lot of bandwidth. It doesn't matter if they
are alone, but If there are several users, I would like the traffic to be
equalized between them.

Here are a sample of my config (I have 2Mbps guaranteed bandwidth and 5
users: 3x512/128kbps; 1x1024/128, 1x128/32kbps).

I guess that I need to build a main pipe in order to determine the total
bandwidth and build queues in it, but the trafic would not be "piped" in the
users'pipes if I do that!

Thank you for your help

Best regards
