  This month, PLUG Central welcomes Julien Vehant, who will be
  giving a presentation entitled "Journey to the Center of the
  Linux Kernel: Traffic Control and QoS".

    We will look into the QoS layer of Linux, talk about processing
    packets and managing queues, read a bit of C (although this is
    not my specialty) and play with TC and IPTABLES to prioritize
    traffic on web, email, bittorrent and whatever you like.  I
    will bring a test machine to do some demos.  

  The meeting will take place on Wednesday, October 5, from 7-9pm at

          University of the Sciences in Philadelphia (USP)
          Griffith Hall C
          600 South 43rd Street
          Philadelphia, PA 19104-4495

  USP is located in University City.  Driving directions are
  available at <http://www.phillylinux.org/locations/usp.html>, or
  <http://www.usip.edu/directions/>, both of which have an aerial
  view of the campus buildings.  USP is also easily accessible by
  public transportation.

  There will be an open Question & Answer session at 7PM, prior to
  the main presentation at 8PM.  This is an open meeting; all are
  welcome and encouraged to attend.

  Usually, a number of members get together after the meeting at a
  nearby restaurant for food and perhaps a beer or two.  Come join
  the camaraderie!
