Unlimited queues not counting anymore?

RouterOS General
1

Hi there!

I’ve been using queues with NO bandwidth limitation for a long time now to create graphs and count rx/tx and total rx/total tx. On Friday I would have needed this feature on a RB450 with 3.18 but it didn’t count anything! After upgrading the FW an ROS to the most current version I still have the same problem! As soon as I enter a bandwidth limitation the queue starts to count, which proves to me that the queue is correct.

No more counting on unlimited queues… Is this a bug or a “feature”?

change queue-type from default-small to default.

Sometimes life’s so easy…

PS: Just checked it again and I got a 2.9.25 x86 installation where default-small on unlimited queues actually IS counting. Why did it work in the past, will it work in the future and why was there this change??

If I remember correctly these changes were added in v3.13 to fix problems with simple queues crashing routers.

Oh, I see, thanks for the info!
