Hi all, I'm new to the entire idea of traffic shaping and I came up with some rules for my BSD firewall/router/VoIP gateway and I just wanted to make sure that what I am trying to accomplish is actually going to happen with these rules in place. Currently, my broadband connection is a 4Mb down and 384Mb up pipe. My VoIP service requires 90Kb up and down. I have 3 separate internal networks at my house. I have my wired 100Mb switched LAN (192.168.15.0/24), I have my IPSec enabled Wireless LAN (192.168.20.0/24), and I have my VoIP LAN (192.168.10.0/30). What I want to do with these traffic shaping rules, is dedicate 100Kb up and down to the VoIP LAN, and then I want to have equally shared bandwidth (the remaining speeds of my broadband connection) for the wired and wireless LANs. Here are the rules I have come up with so far:
<----------------------- (START) /etc/ipfw.rules ------------------------> # flush all rules ipfw -f flush # configure the pipe main pipes - have 4000kbits/s down 384kbits/s up # define 200kbits/s for the voip pipes ipfw pipe 1 config bw 100Kbits/s ipfw pipe 2 config bw 100Kbits/s # wired / wifi lans - get all but 100kbits/s for both up and down ipfw pipe 3 config bw 3900Kbits/s ipfw pipe 4 config bw 284Kbits/s # wired/wifi LAN internal transmission ipfw pipe 5 config bw 100Mbits/s mask dst-ip 0xffffffff ipfw pipe 6 config bw 100Mbits/s mask dst-ip 0xffffffff ipfw pipe 7 config bw 100Mbits/s mask dst-ip 0xffffffff ipfw pipe 8 config bw 100Mbits/s mask dst-ip 0xffffffff # make sure the voip gets all of the bandwidth for the pipes ipfw add 1 pipe 1 ip from 192.168.10.2 to any ipfw add 1 pipe 2 ip from any to 192.168.10.2 # make sure the wired and wifi lans get all of the bandwidth for those pipes ipfw add 2 pipe 5 ip from 192.168.15.0/24 to 192.168.0.0/16 ipfw add 2 pipe 6 ip from 192.168.0.0/16 to 192.168.15.0/24 ipfw add 3 pipe 7 ip from 192.168.20.0/24 to 192.168.0.0/16 ipfw add 3 pipe 8 ip from 192.168.0.0/16 to 192.168.20.0/24 # the wired / wifi lans will split the up and down pipes ipfw queue 3 config weight 50 pipe 3 mask dst-ip 0x000000ff ipfw queue 4 config weight 50 pipe 3 mask dst-ip 0x000000ff ipfw queue 5 config weight 50 pipe 4 mask dst-ip 0x000000ff ipfw queue 6 config weight 50 pipe 4 mask dst-ip 0x000000ff # add inbound/outbound queues for the wired lan ipfw add 100 queue 3 ip from any to 192.168.15.0/24 ipfw add 105 queue 5 ip from 192.168.15.0/24 to any # add inbound/outbound queues for the wifi lan ipfw add 200 queue 4 ip from any to 192.168.20.0/24 ipfw add 205 queue 6 ip from 192.168.20.0/24 to any <------------------------ (END) /etc/ipfw.rules -------------------------> Does this seem like it will perform as I am thinking it will?
