4 X 20Mbps(DL and UL) connection is enough for 350 users?

any recommendation?

2

hi,

we have 30mb/30mb int. connection and it’s serving at around 220-250 hotspot user with good qos and traffic shaping.

br…

Definitive answer: It depends.

:slight_smile:

Do you think which method is better for my network? QOS? PCQ? or others method?
All my clients are students. Concurrent user will be 300-400 users at night.
and they will playing online games and using p2p apps..

can i know which model you are using? RB1100AH x2? CCR1016-12G?
How many % CPU usage for 220-250 users?

All clients students?

Really god bless you man… :=))

It depend s on your system .Which packages are working?,firewall?, hotspot? …etc. everything is affect it.For p2p you should use simple queue and limit p2p traffic.Online games I don’t have an idea.


http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/TransparentTrafficShaper look at that..

our system 1100ah*2..(hotspot,firewall)

Students ???

I would start by trying to block torrents and P2P and use traffic shaping with strict bandwidth allowance, http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/how-block-connection-of-p2p/18495/1

i’m not going to use firewall, because the network is at hostel and for students. My clients don’t let me to block p2p.

In order to service 300 P2P using students, and still let them play online games, in 80Mbps, you will likely have to use the mangle rules and queue tree in order to prioritize traffic to the interactive traffic flows.

You could substitute 1Gbps for the 80Mbps and still have issues if you don’t shape the P2P. It’s not guaranteed to be an issue, but the possibility exists and is not small.

It all depends on what your students / guests want to do with their connection to your network. And it is your network. Limit anything you want to keep one user from harming the experience of other users…

A RB1100AHx2 is probably 10 times more powerful than you need. But it’s inexpensive so worth having. An RB2011UAS will probably handle your network if you are just doing QoS to let them fill the pipe and still have good interactivity. I’d spend the extra for the 1100AHx2, just in case you find that you need to get more creative with your rules. An RB 493G would be a small step up from the RB2011UAS, but at a lot more cost… The 1100AH provides a lot more power for a little extra, and is rack mountable if you want to keep things tidy.

Do you think which model is suitable for all this function? i might have max 320-420 concurrent user at the same time.
Should i use 2 router?
if using 1 Router, CCR1016-12G is enough?
1)Load balancing with 4 X 20Mbps(Download/upload)-dynamic ip address from ISP
2)NAT
3)Qos
4)Hotspot authentication with limited time (all wireless access)
5)DHCP server
6)Equal bandwidth base on active users.
7)remote access

One CCR1016-12G is enough
