tc qdisc with GRE in openwrt

Question

I'm trying to implement traffic control to GRE interface in an openwrt board. For this i followed below steps,

1. Create GRE interface named gre1 in both tunnel end devices.
2. Tested reachability with ping, Success.

3. create qdisc using following command.

   tc qdisc add dev gre1 root handle 1: default 2

4. Before creating tc classes i tired to ping the tunnel interface but this failed. 5.I tried to capture packet in gre1 but found 0 packets.

5. Monitored the statistics of qdisc using the command

   tc -p -s -d qdisc show dev gre1

   found that packet drop count is increasing.

I have tested this same in Ubuntu PC and found working. Also if i change the tunnel to VPN tunnel instead of GRE it working fine.

Is there any additional thing which I need to handle to implement tc in GRE ?

Any help will be appreciated.

Fixed !

Add class

tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:2 htb rate 60kbps ceil 100kbps

then add sfq for the class

tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:2 handle 20: sfq
