tc: Delete all traffic control rules.

$ tc qdisc del dev ${eth0}

try on your machine

The command "tc qdisc del dev ${eth0}" is used to delete a network queuing discipline (qdisc) from a specific network device (${eth0}).

Here is a breakdown of the command:

"tc" stands for "traffic control." It is a command-line utility in Linux used to configure and manage network traffic control settings.
"qdisc" refers to a queuing discipline. In Linux, a qdisc is used to control the flow of network packets by applying various algorithms and policies.
"del" is short for "delete." It is the action we want to perform on the qdisc.
"dev" specifies the network device on which the qdisc is configured. In this case, "${eth0}" is a placeholder for the Ethernet network interface (e.g., eth0, eth1).

Therefore, the command instructs the system to remove a queuing discipline from the specified network device.
