Shaping of EoIP bridge with non-IP traffic

RouterOS General

Hi All,

I’m looking for a way to shape an (EoIP + Ethernet interface) bridge with non-IP traffic, however I can’t find a solution:

  1. “/interface ethernet [N] set bandwidth” allows for only a very narrow selection of pre-defined speeds.

  2. If I create a “/queue simple” rule for destination EoIP IP, it shapes including EoIP overhead, so exact shaping is not possible: to accommodate for possibility of customer sending small packets, I have to allow for something like 50% overhead. But if customer uses 1500 byte packets, that means that he will get 50% more speed than he should.

  3. If I use “use-ip-firewall=yes” on bridge + “/queue simple”, that shapes to proper speed, but doesn’t catch non-IP packets.

Any other options?

/queue simple add target=“your-EoIP-interface”

I checked, it doesn’t suit my requirements - it shapes IP traffic only (provided you have use-ip-firewall:yes), it doesn’t shape MPLS/FCoE/ARP flood etc.

Did you ever find out anything about this? @hzdrus
