 The Linux kernel's network stack has network traffic control and shaping features. The iproute2 package installs the tc command to control these via the command line.\\ The Linux kernel's network stack has network traffic control and shaping features.

 Queuing controls how data is sent; receiving data is much more reactive with fewer network-oriented controls. However, since TCP/IP packets are sent using a slow start the system starts sending the packets slow and keeps sending them faster and faster until packets start getting rejected - it is therefore possible to control how much traffic is received on a LAN by dropping packets that arrive at a router before they get forwarded. There are more relevant details, but they do not touch directly on queuing logic. Queuing controls how data is sent; receiving data is much more reactive with fewer network-oriented controls.

 +  *''sudo sysctl -a | grep qdisc'' shows current default settings
 +  *''sudo sysctl -a | grep net.'' shows all the net. parameters, additional deeper filters net.core, net.ipv4, net.ipv6, net.mptcp, and net.netfilter.  There are a few additionals not shown in deeper filters!
 +  *''sudo tc qdisc show  dev eno1'' shows current setting of interface ''dev eno1''

 +it would seem that Linux has default settings for network interfaces, e.g.:
 +<code>qdisc mq 0: root 
 +qdisc fq_codel 0: parent :4 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5ms interval 100ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn drop_batch 64 
 +qdisc fq_codel 0: parent :3 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5ms interval 100ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn drop_batch 64 
 +qdisc fq_codel 0: parent :2 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5ms interval 100ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn drop_batch 64 
 +qdisc fq_codel 0: parent :1 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5ms interval 100ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn drop_batch 64 </code>
