The work is entitled: "Testbed Evaluation of Integrating Ethernet
Switches in the Differentiated Services Architecture using Virtual
LANs"
There is a lot of information on Differentiated Services in general,
DiffServ on Linux, traffic services, DiffServ in layer 2, switching in Linux,
performance measuring and more.
You can find all that (thesis, traffic control scripts, related programs
etc) at:
As the Linux community, and this e-mailing list in particular, were
invaluable to
my work, I hope my work can be of some use and help to others
as well.
