Hello list!

I am planning to deploy a GLGF (Gentoo Linux Gateway/Firewall -- a
term I just made up). Now, I'm also supposed to put in some traffic
management in it. But there are some subtleties I'd like to clarify
first.

1. tc bandwidth measurement

Does tc measure bandwidth based on the wire speed (e.g., datagram size
+ L4 header + IP header + L2 header), or effective throughput speed
(datagram only)?

2. Wireless 802.11g overhead

Related to the above. The link I'm having to traffic-managed is a
point-to-point link (a pair of dish antennae) using 802.11g. LOS
exists, Fresnel clear. Distance is approx. 200 meters.

With this near-ideal situation, what's the expected overhead against
the 802.11g's theoretical max of 54 Mbps?

Thank you beforehand for any input.

Rgds,
