> Which was true at the time. In the mean time cake grew new “isolation” modes that will attempt to provide on a first level per-(internal)-IP-address fairness and iside each internal IP-address “band” also per-flow fairness. This should allow to restrict the bad effect of bit-torrent traffic on the machine actually running the torrent client. Which seems like a goos compromise since most torrent clients allow configurations to alleviate the issue somewhat for that specific machine (like bandwidth limits). These additional modes do require a bit of testing and especially on ingress they will not be 100% robust (too many in-rushing bit-torrent connections might cause buffers upstream of the cake-managed link to fill and cause increased latency), but that just comes with instantiating a shaper on the wrong end of the real bottleneck. As a sidenote the more bandwidth difference exist between real bottleneck and the artifical cake-managed bottleneck the better ingress shaping will work…<br>

In the direction facing the internet you can instantiate cake on an ifb interface for LAN and then put the iptables DSCP cleaner on the WAN egress side (and the WAN ingress side, unless you trust your ISP to deliver reasonable DSCP values, which should be like never*)<br>

DSCP cleaning on ingress is BTW not really required to happen before cake, as long as cake is set to besteffort it will ignore DSCP markings anyway, and if you want to re-map/re-classify packets vie DSCP on ingress you are pretty much out of scope for a typical home network. Cleaning up on egress, as to not leak internal configuration to the upstream seems indeed sub-optimal, but cake is not alone in that regard…<br>

It would have been nice if the DSCP field would have been separeted into 2 3bit fields, the first for the actual sender to request one of 8 differential classes and the other 3bits for the current domain to store its actually used DSCP bits. I claim the 3 bits should be enough for anybody ;)<br>

But current cake does not offer this. If you are willing to daisy-chain two routers, you could run cake on the respective egress interfaces connecting both routers, and do the DSCP cleaning on the outer router’s egress interface toward the internet…<br>
