Hi, For my diploma exam I will study the state of QoS in today's networking and further directions and I probably will concentrate on ALTQ in FreeBSD (as I'm pretty familiar w/ FreeBSD).
I see that most of today's OSes have a default QoS implementation (at least Win2000 and OpenBSD come to my mind) and there is a growing need for QoS integration into the OS. I was wondering what kept FreeBSD from integrating a QoS implementation (as it did with Kame IPv6) -- for example what are pro and cons of integration ALTQ in FreeBSD (I saw there was a thread launched sometime in the beginning of May 2001). I also saw that ALTQ on FreeBSD seems to be used pretty much even in production. What other QoS implementation alternatives are available for FreeBSD ? Why didn't FreeBSD follow tracks along OpenBSD's integration of ALTQ ? I would be delighted to know that FreeBSD will integrate a QoS implementation (ALTQ) and I would like to contribute in this direction. Thank you, Ady (@freebsd.ady.ro) _______________________________________________________________________ | Programming in BASIC causes brain damage. | | (Edsger Wybe Dijkstra) | To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
