Traffic Control Issue, please help
Hi all!
I am at the very beggining of entering into the world of linux and networks! I got basic knowledge of tcp/ip networks and routing. I've set up home network and everything is working fine. I got 3 interfaces on my router: eth0:Internet; eth1: Internal Network; eth2: DMZ. It's all set up with iptables and is working fine.
I want to implement traffic control using tc, which is part of the kernel. But it seems very difficult to me, I've read a couple of tutorials, but I still don't get it right... so can anyone please help me for this:
I want to prioritize the network traffic for HTTP/HTTPS/MYSQL usage as about 80 % of all bandwidth, which must go through my DMZ part of the network. There I got Microsoft Windows 2003 server, which has Web & SQL Server on it. I need the network traffic to be prioritized to eth2, whenever some users try to access its web/mysql services, and the other traffic should to stay at 20%, while the main traffic is in use.
Please help me to achieve this, I will be very gratefull!

Hi,
Take a look at WonderShaper here : Wonder Shaper
It's basicaly a small bash script using tc
You wan use it as it is (just enter your bandwidth and port you want to prioritize) or in your case with 3 interface you can look at how tc work and customize it yourself easily.

Re:
Thank you for the source. I've read it up, and I tried to build something, like a working HTB QDISK, but I failed

The error which I receive is:
[root@test1 ~]# ./my-tc-basic.htb
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory
We have an error talking to the kernel

Please, help me out to find where my error is, i will be very very very thankfull. Here is my kind of script:
