Guarantee speed to a ip address
-
Can i guarantee speed(dl and up) to a specific ip address in lan and how?
-
Yes. There are several ways to do it.
What kind of traffic is the IP in question using?
Do you want to guarantee a percentage of the pipe or a specific bps value?
Do you want to set a max speed or just a min?

It using RDP protocol.
I want to guarantee minimum speed.

you can set minimum values in HFSC that will never be shared even when idle.
You can use dummynet and set weights that will ensure the IP gets at least x% of the pipe. But if everything else isn't using dummynet as well then it wouldn't work.

HFSC always shares bandwidth. What you can do is set and upper limit. HFSC is all about setting the minimum. If you want a queue to have at least some amount of bandwidth, set it to that amount. If you want a queue to never have more than some amount of bandwidth, add that. You must be explicit. Never forget to set the interface bandwidth.

HFSC minimum values if set is unshared

HFSC minimum values if set is unshared
Kinda but not really. If the (minimum) bandwidth is unused, other queues can use it. Perhaps you are confusing real-time's hard-limit on bandwidth allocation? Even if real-time is completely allocated (80% configured interface bitrate?), when said bandwidth is unused, the bandwidth can be used by link-share.
Harvy66 is correct and makes a good point about HFSC's upper-limit.

The minimum value shares idle bandwidth, the only bandwidth worth sharing. If I set the minimum to 1Mb on my 150Mb connection and nothing else is using bandwidth, it will get 150Mb/s. If all other queues start using bandwidth, that queue will suddenly drop down to 1Mb/s as expected.

I stand corrected!
