I'm using iptables + htb to shape the bandwidth of the internet traffic. I have a link of 17mbit DSL. Actually I have set the rules bellow:
# Interface eth0 (Donwload)
tc qdisc del dev eth0 root
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 htb default 10
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 htb rate 17mbit
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:10 htb rate 8mbit ceil 17mbit # Default Class
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:20 htb rate 1mbit ceil 17mbit # RDP Class
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:30 htb rate 7mbit ceil 17mbit # HTTP/HTTPS Class
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:40 htb rate 1mbit ceil 17mbit # DNS Class
The HTTP/HTTPS class is just to our external dedicated servers. These servers has a high traffic of HTTP/HTTPS then I guarantee a minimum rate of 7mbit with ceil of 17mbit. But the problem is when the other classes aren't using their bandwidth fully, the HTTP/HTTPS class doesn't increases his rate to reach 17mbit. It happended with all classes. See the result of the command "tc -s -d class show dev eth0"
See that any classes doesn't "borrow" available bandwidth from other classes even having.
