That's interesting... The ACC fair limit is increasing during the testing, so I assumed that was a definition of "saturation", since it reached the limit and the ACC limit was rising due to low ping times. Perhaps I am misinterpreting something in that ? Does it have to reach the actual ha...

One last shot. I wondered if the total bandwidth could be off, so I lowered the setting for mas download to 20,000 from 30,000. This is well under the actual bandwidth. But another test showed the same effect, as the blue rose it pushed the other two down. When the blue stopped, the other two return...

I removed the "min BW" settings on all three classes, to simplify the setup. I also slightly lowered the "max BW" overall setting. But it "seems" worse now. The bandwidth of one class can drive it to saturation and rob the other two classes. This is all TCP traffic by t...

One final observation (out of time for testing today) It does in fact "seem" that udp streams break minimum BW but tcp streams do not. I do not know this conclusively, but just visual observation with the different conditions seem to demonstrate this. test condition: steady tcp stream in c...

I suppose a big question here is, does the mechanism of enforcing minimum bandwidth o ly affect packets that are in queue within the gargoyle router? If the answer is yes, then minimums would not be enforceable if the packets are not delayed in the que because of buffering on either side. The gargou...

One other clarification...

The only reason I know about the tcp /udp stream is that for testing from the center, I can inly cause two udp and one tcp stream. The rest of the network is sielnt.

For clarity... The setup is 2 remote routers on the lan side of the gargoule router. So traffic from the lan side of this routers arrives at the gargoule lan side as a single ip due to not in those routers. This is set into the classes of "Crowder" and "Mimi". The "salch&quo...

What lantis said is interesting. If there is no method to slow udp packets, how does qos manage minimum bw requirements when the udp stream is the majority of the traffic?

here is a shot of what happens when a udp stream is in one class and a tcp stream in the other. the "crowder" has a udp stream and "salch" has a tcp stream. the tcp stream was running at 25mbps until the udp stream started, then the udp stole all bandwidth and the tcp stream actu...
