Hi All,

 

Quick question regarding iptables - I have traffic shaping set up and need
to change the rules below. I need to give people accessing my website a
LOWER priority than me accessing external sites. I.E - requests coming into
this box on port 80 need a lower priority than my outbound requests on port
80.

 

I know i need to change one of the following lines but not sure how iptables
works out source and destination ports.

 

Current ruleset gives ALL http traffic a high priority...

 

iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j MARK
--set-mark 0x5

iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --sport 80 -j MARK
--set-mark 0x5

 

 

which line needs changing?

 

Thanks

Jeff
