Hi. I've recently set up a Tor node but bandwidth is running out quickly :) Since I don't want to throttle BW using Tor's options (which basically turns it down) I'd like to limit speed, so I found the suggested script above. I tuned config to fit my needs (my VPS has 1Mb/s speed) this way:
DEV=eth0 TOR_UID=$(id -u debian-tor) RTT_LATENCY=40 # RATE_UP must be less than your connection's upload capacity in # kbits/sec. If it is larger, then the bottleneck will be at your # router's queue, which you do not control. This will cause congestion # and a revert to normal TCP fairness no matter what the queing # priority is. RATE_UP=1000 # RATE_UP_TOR is the minimum speed your Tor connections will have in # kbits/sec. They will have at least this much bandwidth for upload. # In general, you probably shouldn't set this too low, or else Tor # users who use your node will be completely choked out whenever your # machine does any other network activity. That is not very fun. RATE_UP_TOR=500 # RATE_UP_TOR_CEIL is the maximum rate allowed for all Tor trafic in # kbits/sec. RATE_UP_TOR_CEIL=900 CHAIN=OUTPUT MTU=1500 AVG_PKT=900 # should be more like 600 for non-exit nodes But when I start the script, after some time the Atlas page reports a 125kb/s bandwidth for my node. Am I configuring it wrong or what? thanks -- Lorenzo Milesi - lorenzo.mil...@yetopen.it YetOpen S.r.l. - http://www.yetopen.it/ -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
