I don't think so. There's nothing on dummynet's/ipfw's documentation regarding this feature. You should try pf and ALTQ. ALTQ has better queueing disciplines than ipfw. ALTQ will mostly fit your needs. You can also use ipfw with ALTQ. On Sat, 03 Mar 2007 09:50:43 +0800 John Mok <jmok@attglobal.net> wrote: > Hi, > > I am new to Dummynet.
