I'll try to get it in the build, but not install it by default, and it looks
very invasive, so.....
trying a building it now.
Any other tools to build that MIGHT be useful as extra packages to maybe
install in the field?
go through
scripts/feeds list | less
For example in iscwrt we're fiddling with a sip server and daap... (in
addition to bind9 with dnssec support, which isn't ready for prime time yet)
Want to "freeze" by monday.

OK I compiled it. It built as a package.

In this particular case, using SFB on a per IP address basis may work.
(not that SFB is in the build)

I incorporated the QoS scripts which use tc and the hsfc QoS algorithm + SFQ
to do that job. It works well in iscwrt, in combination with a lowered
txqueue (to 16), I observed latencies peaking at 66ms on a DSL connection
that can't do better than 26ms. (vs over half a second)
(these are disabled by default (I think) as they will mess up your
measurements)
But do try 'em out!
They seem pretty good on the outgoing interface. To do rate limitation on a
per user basis in conjunction with that I would think about SFB on the inner
interfaces.
So I'm back to wondering what to do, exactly, with openflow.
If you aren't already aware of the iscwrt subproject, see:
http://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/iscwrt/wiki
One of the principal maintainers of bind (Evan Hunt) is hacking on it - even
running it now using the wndr3700v2 as his main router.

nagios + snmp are common for some of that.
I'll read the paper on the plane.
