QoS

ether1 is my wan port

the rest of the ethernet ports are all on bridge1

Can I easily do qos on the traffic between
ether1 and bridge1, ignoring traffic local to
bridge1.

I have a low end 1536/896 DSL line, it's the best I can get
in my neighborhood. A big step up from 128/128 ISDN.

High priority fifo queue for voip, etc.
Normal interactive traffic,
And low priority file transfer, etc.

Some traffic will be easy to classify.
But all sorts of stuff gets sent over port 80.
Is there a way to recognize which queue it
belongs in? Then move the stream into the
correct queue. This is probably too ambitious
for now.

Should I start with simple queues, or should
I skip them and go directly to queue trees?
