Simple queue for PPPoE client with dynamic remote address

Hi,

I’m setting up a PPPoE server on one of my CCR1036’s.
What i’m trying to do is create a simple queue for individual PPPOE clients. These clients are assigned a dynamic remote address from a pool.

I can create a simple queue and set the target as the pppoe client virtual interface. This works fine until…

The problem:
When a pppoe client disconnects from pppoe server the queue turns red as the target interface is no longer active which is fine. But when the client re-connects the simple queue remains red with no target.

I’m not sure if this is a bug or its just not supposed to be a feature in ROS?

If there is an alternative method to achieve the following please let me know.

I want a simple queue created for the pppoe client to limit their traffic. I also need to be able to monitor the live bandwidth consumption of the individual pppoe clients. (Remember their remote address is dynamic)

How can this be done?

Thanks,

Anybody?

You can create them dynamic from PPPoE profiles! In profiles you set limits and on tab queue, 3rd option is queue type! So every time that a client will connect a dynamic queue will be created and when client disconnect queue will be removed!

Hi, Im aware of this setting but how do I apply bursting, etc like in simple queue?

Try this! Works the same in PPP Profiles!

Thanks Ingdaka!

This is exactly what I was looking for :slight_smile:

Hi All, I have the same issue but it seems that this link is now unavailable. Anybody knows the updated link for this tutorial? Thank you.
