I must be missing something very simple. I have simple queues set up to limit certain IP addresses on our network, I need to bypass that existing queue if the src-address and dst-address match two servers talking. I’ve tried target-address with dst-address and the packet counters don’t seem to go up. I’ve tried firewall mangles and packet marks with the simple queue and it still gets over ridden by the queue farther down the simple queue chain.
What am I doing wrong, how am I messing up such a simple operation, help!
It would be helpful if you posted your configuration, including “/ip address print detail”, “/ip route print detail”, “/interface print detail”, “/ip firewall export”, and “/simple queue export” together with an accurate network diagram. Also post the IPs of the servers you’re trying to exempt.
;; the queue simple rule with which i had hoped to give unlimited to the two servers while talking to each other.
;; for whatever reason the queue after this one still limits it to 5M/5M
;; the 208 address is attached via a vlan tag 3
;; the 192 address is DHCP via a vlan tag 6
;; then it gateways off ether6 to the great wilds of the internet
Let me know if any additional information might be helpful.
