nixCraft → Howto → BASH Shell → Linux Increasing The Transmit Queue Length (txqueuelen) How do I set txqueuelen (the length of the transmit queue) length of the network card device under Linux? How do I set it for a high latency and/or a high speed network for bulk transfer from disturbing interactive traffic like ssh too much? You can set the length of the transmit queue of the device using /sbin
