Looking for some help with TC (Traffic Control)

Mun

So here is what I am trying to do.

I want three traffic "buckets" for which IPs will be assigned into.

The first bucket bulk carrier I want to be filler. I want all over traffic to get priority of this. It isn't time crucial traffic and I want it to take as long as it needs, and fill in the gaps of what I am not using.

The second bucket High Speed I want to be the top priority. This I want to have instant priority over everything else. This is for things like my voice / gaming servers.

Finally I want a general bucket. These are for things that don't fit in either, and just need to have a higher priority over the bulk carrier, but less then the high speed bucket.

Here is a config I made after doing some reading, but it doesn't work as I intended. I think it is due to using 'cbq' instead of something like 'pfifo'. I also don't fully understand the prio flags, or what 16 is as I can't find what prio 16 is in any documentation. ( I was following a few examples, which are really overly complicated.)

#main connection
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: cbq avpkt 10000 bandwidth 100mbit 

#bulk carrier *backups*
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:1 cbq rate 40mbit allot 1500 prio 1 bounded isolated 
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 16 u32 match ip dst 107.xxx.xxx.134 flowid 1:1

#High speed
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:2 cbq rate 10mbit allot 1500 prio 3 bounded isolated
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 16 u32 match ip dst 23.xxx.xxx.198  flowid 1:2
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 16 u32 match ip src 23.xxx.xxx.198 flowid 1:2

#general connection
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:3 cbq rate 90mbit allot 1500 prio 5 bounded isolated
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 16 u32 match ip dst 0.0.0.0/0 flowid 1:3

Any help would be appreciated!!

Use iptables -J MARK to set different types of traffic to whatever class you want.
