Well, it's only perhaps a requirement. I’m in the middle of some flow isolation
tests to look at the difference between Cake’s ‘srchost’ and ‘dual-srchost’
keywords and try to figure out whether one or the other is “better" to use on a
ISP backhaul’s egress. I’m not sure yet, but if there are any opinions on it it
could help.
But this is also helpful, because either per-member scheduling is good enough,
or we’d need multiple fq_codel instances, and at that point it could also be
Cake as well… :)
