Hello misc, I'm a bit confusion with understanding such things.
I have a symmetrical channel to the Internet with 20 Mbits and
openbsd5.2 as gateway, with NAT.
Imagine I defined ALTQ on $ext_if and on $int_if.
Am I right that:
1) ALTQ on $ext_if will be applied for upstream channel (i.e. "upload speed"
from the point of view the client behind the NAT)?
2) ALTQ on $int_if will be applied for download channel (i.e. "download
speed"
from the point of view the client behind the NAT)?
If be much more simple, get for example http://speedtest.net.
After the test I have two result: download and upload speed.
Is it true, that if I apply queue for myself in filter rule, it will
work both,
for download and upload in the terms of speedtest.net, but only for
upstream channel in the terms of ALTQ?
Or am I totally wrong? Because I read man, faq, calomel.org,
BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT by Benjamin Heckmann, misc, etc
and still can't understood how upstream and downstream channel speed
correlates with ALTQ and upload and download speeds for clients behind NAT.
