Hi, I went through the exact same question a few times ago when I started studying the TC implementation. All the material is old but, the thing is, it didn't exactly move for years since the algorithms are satisfying enough for most needs. LARTC is a good source, but I like this one too http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Traffic-Control-HOWTO/ After, the sources codes of the kernel (net/sched) are the best information sources, with the manpages of iproute2 http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/iproute2 Now, tcng... I don't know what to say, I never personnally used it, neither got the need for it. I suppose not a lot of people use it. If you have implementation questions, the best place is the netdev mailing list. Good luck, Julien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
