Give priority to an IP address

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

I have a VOIP server (e.g. 192.168.5.1) on ether3, and I want outbound traffic from that host to get priority over ANY other traffic to ensure call quality.

I have looked at the docs but still not sure the best way to implement this.

What do you recommend? and please give me examples of syntax I need to enter

Thanks again

see queue tree in manual (under bandwidth management) and also packet marking

Hi,

I used simple priority and works ok. Here I copy a config from one rb133 working:

The ip network 192.168.27.0 is the customers, an the 192.168.198.1 is the ip of the phone server.
The queue number 0 is for internet and has lower priority than telephony. Also has a lower band restriction.

hope this help you.
