Basic configuration
-------------------

1. When configuring the kernel, select at least the following options under
   "Networking options":
    - kernel/User netlink socket
    - QoS and/or fair queueing
    - ATM pseudoscheduler
    - Packet classifier API
    - Routing tables based classifier
   You may select additional schedulers/classifiers/etc. As usual, module
   support is not tested yet, so you should select "y", not "m".

2. Build the kernel.

3.  Download iproute2-x.x.x-now-ssXXXXXX.tar.gz from

   ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-routing/ or one of its mirrors.

4. Extract iproute2:
    - tar xvfz iproute2-x.x.x-now-ssXXXXXX.tar.gz

5. Build and install iproute2:
    - cd iproute2
    - edit Config to enable the ATM queuing discipline: TC_CONFIG_ATM=y
    - make
    - cp tc/tc ip/ip /sbin

6. Run a little example. We first set up the ATM queuing discipline to
   intercept selected traffic through our Ethernet interface "eth0" and
   to forward this traffic over a PVC 0.100:

     # tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle 1: root atm
     # tc class add dev eth0 classid 1:1 atm pvc 0.100

   Verify that the operation succeeded:

     % tc qdisc show dev eth0
     qdisc atm 1:
     % tc class show dev eth0
     class atm 1: parent 1: hdr . excess clp 
     class atm 1:1 parent 1: pvc 0.0.100 hdr aa.aa.03.00.00.00.08.00 excess clp
       CONNECTED 

   (The first class is used to send all traffic that isn't explicitly
   selected for ATM over the normal Ethernet interface. This class is
   automatically created when setting up the ATM queuing discipline.)

   Next, we add a filter and set up a route that selects it. If you
   have enabled other filters, you can also try to select flows via
   firewall rules, etc.

     # tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip route to 1 flowid 1:1
     # ip route add 10.0.0.0/8 dev eth0 realm 1

   Test the redirection to ATM:

     % ping 10.0.0.1

   Remove the ATM queuing discipline again:

     # tc qdisc del dev eth0 root

   Verify that the PVC has been removed:

     % cat /proc/net/atm/pvc


Policing (UNTESTED !)
--------

When adding policing, proceed as follows:

1. Enable in "Networking options" the item "Ingres traffic policing"

2. Specify policy along with the classifier (use u32 or rsvp)

3. Decide on policing action. There are three choices:

    - drop packet
    - send packet in different class (re-classify)
    - send packet in same class, with CLP=1

   Note that policing is only done once, so it's not possible to
   re-classify a second time. Also note that dropping currently isn't
   supported by tc.

4. Set up the classifier and the class according to the choice made:

     Action	Classifier/filter action  Class
     ----------	------------------------  --------------
     drop	drop (not yet supported)  n/a
     reclassify	reclassify (default)	  excess CLASSID
     CLP=1	reclassify (default)	  excess clp

   Example:
     # tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:1 protocol ip route \
          burst 100 rate 100
     # tc class add dev eth0 classid 1:1 atm pvc 0.100 excess 1:0
