Hi!

We have 2 lines with 2 mbit each. I have to set up a configuration like
the following:
- if both lines work, grant 3 mbit to a web service running on a server in
our DMZ
- if one line fails, grant all the remaining 2 mbit to that service
- if the service doesn't need all the bandwidth, use the remaining for
other services

I read through the HOWTO, and figured out that I need TEQL to create a
virtual device that can have HTB attached.

My questions:
- how will bandwidth granting work with teql? Will the bandwidth be
additive and then granting and borrowing possible?
- if one line fails, how what will happen? I guess that the failing device
(e.g. eth1) will go offline, and the teql device will contain only the
remaining device (eth2) - how will htb behave then with that 3 mbit
granting set up?

Thanks, i hope these are not so beginner questions.
