Hi,
I’m using Router OS for about half a year now and used it quite a lot but I can’t get a specific traffic shaping to work on a rb2011uas. (now 6.0rc4 installed)
Explanation in short:
Port 1 is connected to a Network 192.168.254.1 to connect to the internet.
Port 2 & 3 & 4 are bridged and on every of these ports there’s one group with internet access. They are all on the network 192.168.5.0.
Now I’d like to give every group an equal bandwith (limit at) but as far as it’s not needed by the other groups 100% of internet speed.
So the configuration I have now is
- Adding IPs to Adress-Lists (A, B, C) as new connections are made from Ports 2, 3, 4. That is working fine so far
- With mangle I’m marking all packets so I have 6 marks for the three groups (A, B, C) with up and download. (Aup, Adown, Bup, Bdown, Cup, Cdown).
Whatever queues (simple or queue tree) I make it seems it’s only working for the upload over port 1 (where all traffic is leaving this port). For the download of the groups I can’t get it to work. I can set max limit, that is working, but limit AT does not have effect. As soon as one group is downloading about 20 files at once someone from another group has almost no throughput while loading one file only.
Before going into detail. Can anybody tell me if that will be working at all or if I’m trying to achieve something that won’t work? If it’s not working I already thought about
a) adding a second router that splits the groups in three networks so I could do the traffic shaping on only one port (connected to the second router)
b) adding a second router to the first one so that all internettraffic is going out from Router 1 to Router 2, coming then in to Router 1 again to go to the internet… I did not try this yet, but I could imagine it could work…
Thanks a lot!
