Queue Trees Question

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

I am still a little confused about Queue Trees. So i will post my question here in hopes someone can help.

Say I have 512/256Kbps total bandwidth. I want to allocate 128/64Kbps to 5 users and 128/64Kbps to another 5 users and 256/128 to another user. Users are defined by IP address.

Do I create a class for each 128/64Kbps and 256Kchannel? Or do I first create a class for the total amount of Bandwidth and then create subclasses for each channel below and specify the users for each channel/subclass?

if someone could show me how to apply this I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

crocks21,
probably the following scenario will help you to create configuration.

  1. Mark 3 groups traffic in mangle (first group - 5 users, second group - 5 users, 3 group - one user).
  2. Set PCQ queues for the first and the second group, PCQ will equally divide certain amount of traffic between users in group.
  3. Set queue tree for the third user, but you may use ‘simple queue’ too to accomplish your scenario.
