Are your Shaper queue lengths set correctly?

[iMx]

Anyone reading this, if you're running the Shaper, on 21.1.8, could you test something for me?

- Edit the Pipe
- Enable Advanced
- Set Queue slots, to a value other than 50 (the default)
- Apply

On the CLI, if you run:

Code Select Expand

ipfw pipe show

Do you still only see the default queue lot size, of 50?

Code Select Expand

q75536  50 sl. 0 flows (1 buckets) sched 10000 weight 0 lmax 0 pri 0 droptail

I had a look in the /tmp directory, to see if I can see the ruleset, but it didn't seem to be there.

I'm pretty sure in 21.1.7 the queues were set correctly based on the value entered in the UI.

I think, that even though I have:

Code Select Expand

Scheduler type: FlowQueue-Codel


ipfw pipe show it also shows as FIFO?

Code Select Expand

sched 75537 type FIFO flags 0x0 0 buckets 0 active

[iMx]

Ah ha -

Code Select Expand

ipfw sched show

sched 10001 type FQ_CODEL flags 0x0 0 buckets 0 active

Assuming 50 sl. represents the 50 Queue slots, I do think this still does not take the value from the UI - when set to something other than 50.

EDIT: Found the ipfw rules:

Code Select Expand

/usr/local/etc/ipfw.rules

Does seem to show a correct queue size there:

Code Select Expand

queue 100

Perhaps I'm misinterpreting the ipfw pipe show command :-/

I set mine to 100 and saw this also like you. No clue if its right or wrong:

Created a new pipe, seem to take the value correctly, shows in ipfw pipe show:

Code Select Expand

q141074 100 sl. 0 flows (1 buckets) sched 75538 weight 0 lmax 0 pri 0 droptail

Guess I'll try deleting and re-creating my pipes :)

[allebone]

maybe it just needs a reboot or something?

[iMx]

Aye, I did just try that - but no change.

I'm wondering if perhaps the issue is with modifying pipes, rather than on creation - I'm pretty sure I looked to 'up' it after creating the Pipe originally.

I do note that even though I've delete the Pipe through the UI, it remains in the ipfw pipe show command:

10002:  10.000 Mbit/s    0 ms burst 0
q141074 100 sl. 0 flows (1 buckets) sched 75538 weight 0 lmax 0 pri 0 droptail
sched 75538 type FIFO flags 0x0 0 buckets 0 active

.. also tried the 'Reset' option as well, no change.

I tried making a new pipe and set 100 on the queue when creating it but it still showed 50 for me when I checked via CLI so unsure how you got it to do that.

[iMx]

I even tried editing/running it manually on the CLI:

Code Select Expand

ipfw pipe 10000 config bw 100Mbit/s queue 100 type fq_codel ecn quantum 3000 limit 3000


Still shows:

Code Select Expand

q75536  50 sl.


...but yet if I create a new pipe, with varying configuration, it takes the none-50 value... well, I'm lost.
