I'm having a hard time getting simple queues to, well, queue traffic
I have a mangle rule that seems to match traffic pretty well when viewed in Winbox:
ros code
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting layer7-protocol=bittorrent new-packet-mark=Torrent
based on that, I've created a simple queue:
ros code
add limit-at=64k/64k max-limit=128k/128k name=P2P packet-marks=Torrent queue=pcq-upload-default/pcq-download-default(I've also tried attached this to my internal interface directly - ether2) I've also tried creating queue trees, and ant get any queue to see ANY trffic (average rates are always, 0, etc).
I would think that this would limit the relevant marked traffic (which I'm reasonable certain is being marked properly) to no more than 128k in either direction, but this isn't happening. I'll admit I'm new to Microtik, but not networking or QoS in general. I'm also not seeing it doing anything in Winbox:
Running 6.0rc13 on RB751 hardware...pretty standard NAT setup with DHCP for external interface (ether1) and bridge with ether2 as master internally.
Code: Select all
add chain=input comment="default configuration" protocol=icmp
add chain=input comment="default configuration" connection-state=established
add chain=input comment="default configuration" connection-state=related
add action=drop chain=input comment="default configuration" in-interface=ether1
