Carl,

No, your config will not allocate 50% of the bandwidth for IP traffic.

Try this one out...

queue-list 1 protocol ip 0
queue-list 1 protocol bridge 2
queue-list 1 protocol dlsw 3
queue-list 1 queue 1 byte-count 6000
queue-list 1 queue 2 byte-count 3000
queue-list 1 queue 3 byte-count 3000

Using the "limit" option will only change the number of packets allowed in
the queue. To allocate bandwidth percentages, you need to specify the
byte-count for each queue so that you get the desired bandwidth percentages.

Custom Queueing works in a round robin fashion. It will go to queue #1 and
send the specified number of bytes, then it will go to queue #2, and so on.
In the config that I've put here, IP gets 50% of the bandwidth and the other
2 protocols get 25% each.

Here's another way to look at it: In this scenario, custom queueing will
transmit a total of 12,000 bytes of traffic each time it cycles through all
of the queues. Since IP's byte-count is set at 6000, it will get 50% of the
bandwidth.

Hope that helps!

Todd
