[jira] [Commented] (TS-2597) QoS (Quality of Service) Support ZPH (Zero Penalty HIT)

["Jack Bates (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2597?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14114572#comment-14114572 ] 

Jack Bates commented on TS-2597:
--------------------------------

I added some notes on this and traffic shaping in general to the wiki:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TS/Traffic+Shaping#TrafficShaping-ZeroPenaltyHit

I'm skeptical that it isn't better to directly manage the bandwidth between the proxy and origin? I think the use case for this Squid feature is the management of upstream bandwidth without limiting access to content that's already cached. You can mark traffic sent *from* the origin with the CONNMARK iptables/ip6tables target. That and transparency can help directly manage the bandwidth between the proxy and origin.

> Hello there.
> I know it would be easy for someone in development team to create a module (plugin) that enables to set QoS markers on outgoing traffic.
> as such :
> Allows admin to set a TOS/Diffserv value to mark local hits.
> thus allowing missed (non locally cached )objects to have certain TOS/Diffserv and HITs (locally cached) objects to have different TOS/Diffserv.
> Much Regards
