RFC8325 section 4.3 gives recommendations for translation from DSCP codepoints to WMM categories. These differ from the default translation in RouterOS (https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:WMM) when setting packet priority by
from-dscp-high-3-bits
. Would be good to have an additional option for setting priority like
from-dscp-rfc8325
. This would spare a number of mangle rules added manually.
In addition, it would be nice to have control over the parameters which control wireless access priorities on the air (see RFC8325, section 6). Please make WMM parameters like TxOP, AIFS, CWmin, CWmax configurable in RouterOS by the user.
Even more some insight in how WMM is acting would be nice. Now it is a black box. In most cases it is not used at all even with “WMM=enabled” set, because everything is on priority 0, untill you add some mangle rules to change that. Very difficult to see what that mangle rule brings.
And also that same priority is used in the A-PMDU setting. Only ability to set it on/off for each of the 8 priorities and default set for priority “0” only. Is there a gradation in the number of MSDU and A-MSDU blocks collected in one A-PMDU? This aggregation is a quite important criterium for high speed wifi performance. (http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/how-to-get-rid-of-slow-wifi-can-it-be-done/139640/1) even without adaptive tuning knowing the current parameters and current usage would be a great feature.
