[PLUG] Journey to the Center of the Linux Kernel: Traffic Control and QoS

[Julien Vehent <julien@linuxwall.info>]

Hey PLUG,

Thanks for having me tonight. I really enjoyed my first visit at PLUG 
Central.

As you might have noticed, the topic of QoS is a bit broad to be 
covered in a 1 hour talk. Especially if we start digging into different 
types of algorithms, buffers management and so on. But I hope this 
introduction gave enough tools to start digging in your packets, and get 
scared at the latency exploding when you start filling up the pipe.

The long version of the article, that I'm still working on, is below:
http://wiki.linuxwall.info/doku.php/en:ressources:dossiers:networking:traffic_control

And the source code for the example QoS policy we discussed, including 
the graphing tools, is on github:

The slides are here: http://4u.1nw.eu/Plug-QoS-2011.pdf

Feel free to share your feedback on the article, I can certainly use 
some reviews ;)

Thanks,
Julien
