iptables traffic shaping question

iptables traffic shaping question

[J. Bakshi]

Dear list,


I like to get a good response ( min wait ) from my ssh and  stable ( max
throughput ) connection from the apache running at a remote server. Is 
there any setting  in iptables which allow me to set in my server
accordingly ?

Thanks

iptables isn't really the tool for this. look into the "tc" command of the
iproute package.

I used to go to this site:

http://lartc.org/

It's still, up although it looks unmaintained.

Best regards,
Filip

LARTC is unmaintained, but, AFAIK, none of the components regarding
traffic control described there have changed.
Maybe somebody more aware of the recent developments could confirm...

Hello Julien and Filip,

thanks a lot for pointing out LARTC site. It is a great site.
I got there the solution of my doubt.  It is TOS adjustment.
