Re: Creating Logical Interface

[Bhaskar <vbhaskar@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I am trying to configure my linux machine as we do in cisco.  There is a feature in Cisco called "Logical IP Addressing and IP Tunneling", where a logical interface is created and Bandwidth is assigned to it.  If we want we can also create a tunnel.
I am trying to implement the same.
If we r talking abt aliases it won't help as it won't be having any queues.

Hi all,
I want to create logical network interfaces over a physical interface
and limit traffic over that logical interface.
This feature is there in cisco routers.  Is it already implemented?
    

you can create logical interfaces. traffic shaping over physical
interfaces is supported but i am not sure about logical interfaces.
since the logical interfaces are mapped to physical interfaces, i
don't understand the efficacy of using logical interfaces for traffic
shaping.

can you please elaborate ?

kind regards
