Has anyone been able to get the RED (random early detection) qdisc working lately? I can't get anything going through it to be dropped or marked; the 'marked', 'early', 'pdrop' and 'other' fields remain at 0 [1]. In my example script [2], I get the 3072Kbits/s transfer into eth0, which you'd expect if the RED qdisc wasn't there. I have tried with a recent 2.6.12 debian kernel and stock 2.6.14 on x86_64 debian. I built new iproute and iptables packages from latest clean upstream sources, but to no avail. Any ideas? Please CC me on replies, as I am not subscribed.

You need to test with several tcp connections, one will not have a big enough rwin to fill the queue enough to reach the buffer thresholds - which for clarity I would specify in kb not kbit. Andy. Andy.
