• Dynamic Balancing can be used to specify that all users in a group get a fair and equal
amount of bandwidth.
10.1.10. More Pipe Examples
This section looks at some more scenarios and how traffic shaping can be used to solve particular
problems.
A Basic Scenario
The first scenario will examine the configuration shown in the image below, in which incoming
and outgoing traffic is to be limited to 1 megabit per second.
Figure 10.7. A Basic Traffic Shaping Scenario
The reason for using 2 different pipes in this case, is that these are easier to match to the physical
link capacity. This is especially true with asynchronous links such as ADSL.
First, two pipes called in-pipe and out-pipe need to be created with the following parameters:
Pipe Name Min Prec Def Prec Max Prec Grouping Net size Pipe limit
in-pipe 0 0 7 PerDestIP 24 1000kb
out-pipe 0 0 7 PerSrcIP 24 1000kb
Dynamic Balancing should be enabled for both pipes. Instead of PerDestIP and PerSrcIP we
could have used PerDestNet and PerSrcNet if there were several networks on the inside.
The next step is to create the following Pipe Rule which will force traffic to flow through the
pipes.
