DESCRIPTION
This file defines the traffic shaping that will be applied by fireqos(1).
The default configuration file is /etc/fireqos/fireqos.conf. It can be overridden from the command line.
A configuration consists of a number of input and output interface definitions (see fireqos-interface(5)). Each interface can define any number of (optionally nested) classes (see fireqos-class(5)) which shape the traffic which they match (see fireqos-match(5)).
SPEED UNITS
In FireQOS, speeds can be expressed in the following units:
- #bps
-
# bytes per second
- #kbps; #Kbps
-
# kilobytes per second
- #mbps; #Mbps
-
# megabytes per second
- #gbps; #Gbps
-
# gigabytes per second
- #bit
-
# bits per second
- #kbit; #Kbit; #
-
# kilobits per second (default)
- #mbit; #Mbit
-
# megabits per second
- #gbit; #Gbit
-
# gigabits per second
- #%
-
In a class, uses this percentage of the enclosing
rate.
-
Note
The default, kbit is different to tc(8) which assumes bytes per second when no unit is specified.
EXAMPLE
This example uses match statements.
-
# incoming traffic from my ADSL router interface eth2 adsl-in input rate 10500kbit adsl remote pppoe-llc class voip commit 100kbit pfifo match udp ports 5060,10000:10100 # asterisk sip and rtp match udp ports 16393:16402 # apple facetime class realtime commit 10% match tcp port 22,1195:1198,1753 # ssh, openvpn, pptp match udp port 53 # dns match proto GRE match icmp match tcp syn match tcp ack class clients commit 10% match tcp port 20,21,25,80,143,443,465,873,993 # mail, web, ftp, etc # unmatched traffic goes here ('default' is a special name) class default max 90% # I define torrents beneath the default class, so they slow # down when the default class is willing to get bandwidth class torrents max 90% match port 51414 # my torrent client # outgoing traffic to my ADSL router interface eth2 adsl-out output rate 800kbit adsl remote pppoe-llc class voip commit 100kbit pfifo match udp ports 5060,10000:10100 # asterisk sip and rtp match udp ports 16393:16402 # apple facetime class realtime commit 10% match tcp port 22,1195:1198,1753 # ssh, openvpn, pptp match udp port 53 # dns match proto GRE match icmp match tcp syn match tcp ack class clients commit 10% match tcp port 20,21,25,80,143,443,465,873,993 # mail, web, ftp, etc # unmatched traffic goes here ('default' is a special name) class default max 90% # I define torrents beneath the default class, so they slow # down when the default class is willing to get bandwidth class torrents max 90% match port 51414 # my torrent client
This example uses server/client statements in a bidirectional interface. Of course match statements can also be specified. FireQOS will create 2 interfaces out of this: world-in and world-out.
