This is the job of the queueing 1252ab4ac2SThomas Graf disciplines, several different algorithms for how to do this 136a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg "fairly" have been proposed. 146a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg 156a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg If you say N here, you will get the standard packet scheduler, which 166a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg is a FIFO (first come, first served). If you say Y here, you will be 176a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg able to choose from among several alternative algorithms which can 186a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg then be attached to different network devices. This is useful for 196a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg example if some of your network devices are real time devices that 206a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg need a certain minimum data flow rate, or if you need to limit the 216a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg maximum data flow rate for traffic which matches specified criteria. 226a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg This code is considered to be experimental. 236a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg 246a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg To administer these schedulers, you'll need the user-level utilities 255d330cddSAndrew Shewmaker from the package iproute2+tc at 265d330cddSAndrew Shewmaker <https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/iproute2/>.
