I want to throttle bandwidth and add delay to a network interface to simulate satellite communication. For example 800ms delay and 1mb/s. The following limits the bandwidth correctly but does not increase the latency: 17:16:51 root@Panasonic_FZ-55 ~ # tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 1024kbit latency 800ms burst 1540 17:18:48 root@Panasonic_FZ-55 ~ # ping 10.10.91.58 PING 10.10.91.58 (10.10.91.58): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 10.10.91.58: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.938 ms 64 bytes from 10.10.91.58: seq=1 ttl=64 time=3.258 ms 64 bytes from 10.10.91.58: seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.259 ms 64 bytes from 10.10.91.58: seq=3 ttl=64 time=1.407 ms ^C --- 10.10.91.58 ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 0.938/1.715/3.258 ms 17:18:56 root@Panasonic_FZ-55 ~ # iperf -c 10.10.91.58 ------------------------------------------------------------ Client connecting to 10.10.91.58, TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 85.0 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 3] local 10.10.91.57 port 34790 connected with 10.10.91.58 port 5001 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0-10.5 sec 1.38 MBytes 1.09 Mbits/sec 17:19:19 root@Panasonic_FZ-55 ~ # I got my information from this site.
