Hi guys, I need some help. Currently my scenario is as shown in the image, I sell two internet links, one for each client listed as in the image, client 1 link of 1GB client 2 link of 500MB. Today their bandwidth control is done by simple queue, but what happens is that the 2116’s CPU goes too high, I made the example smaller, but there are more clients. The help I need from you is how to use QoS with the switch chip, be it 2116 or CRS317, I did some tests using rule on switch chip, using the pvid of the vlan and the rate=1GB for example, but it is extremely slow, I think it drops packets, I don’t know, the bandwidth doesn’t even come close to the configured one and other than that the connection is slow, when deactivating the rules everything goes back to normal, could someone help me implement this in this scenario so I can deactivate it effectively the simple queue
is very important to know on which version or routeros are your devices
I think qos-hw-offloading is a new feature, so in ros 7.16 has been polished and also provide graphical interface on winbox to easily configure and monitor
remember to do your due diligence before making changes on your devices, always do backup and export of your config to your PC
i have seen some times after changing qos hw settings a reboot is needed for full stability
version 7.16.1
I created a QoS profile, DSCP 3, PCP3, assigns it to a vlan profile. I created a rule specifying the vlan and the profile and the rate limit, would that be basically it?
