V6 - Simple Queues on bridged interfaces

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi!

I work on a WISP that currently have the entire wireless network on bridge mode.

So I am installing a RB2011 on each POP, so I can later route the entire network using OSPF. To be able to route, I will have to change the IP address of every costumer because currently the addresses are distributed randomly.

So initially all RB2011 will work with all ethernet on bridge mode. I am trying to use simple queues to limit the bandwidth of each costumer on each POP.

I used simple queues before on v5, but I am not sure what I am missing on v6 because the queues are not workng.

I am creating a simple queue for each costumer (each costumer have a valid and fixed IP address). I add the IP address of the costumer on the “Target” field, leave “Dst” alone, filll “Max Limit” on “Target Upload” and “Target Download” with the desired values. I also filled “Limit At” on advanced tab… but it does not work.

As I remenber, it was very simple doing it on v5… what am I missing?

Thanks

Ports are bridged or switched on rb2011?
If they are switched you can not shape traffic because switch chip is handling traffic ..not cpu/ros

3

All ports are on the same bridge. I am not using switch.

EDIT

All I have configured on the RB2011 is:

One IP address on eth1 for remote access
One bridge with all ethernet ports
Simple Queues for each client, but the queues are not working.

Queues example:

0 name=“Costumer 1 - 2Mb” target=XXX.38.23.139/32 parent=none packet-marks=“”
priority=8/8 queue=default-small/default-small limit-at=0/0
max-limit=2M/2M burst-limit=0/0 burst-threshold=0/0 burst-time=0s/0s

1 name=“Costumer 2 - 2Mb” target=XXX.38.23.193/32 parent=none packet-marks=“”
priority=8/8 queue=default-small/default-small limit-at=2M/2M
max-limit=2M/2M burst-limit=0/0 burst-threshold=0/0 burst-time=0s/0s

2 name=“Costumer 3 - 512k” target=XXX.38.23.243/32 parent=none packet-marks=“”
priority=8/8 queue=default-small/default-small limit-at=0/0
max-limit=512k/512k burst-limit=0/0 burst-threshold=0/0 burst-time=0s/0s

Did you configured the device starting from default standard config or from zero-config ?

Provide output for command:
/interface ethernet export

5

By the way ..“Customer” not “Costumer” :laughing:

6

I started from zero config.

That command only shows this config:

About the "customer" thing, I always mess that up... english is not my first language :unamused:

Try to:

/interface bridge settings set use-ip-firewall=yes

and check if queues now works.

8

Hi… Now it kind of works… a couple of queues are working alright while the others still doesn’t work.

Only queues number 1 and number 12 are working… but all queues have similar rules. The only thing that is different are IP addresses and bandwidth limit.

EDIT: Queue 14 also works.

I also don’t understand why the option /interface bridge settings set use-ip-firewall=yes is not present on Winbox interface…

Thanks for your help man!

Actually in winbox you can find the Bridge - Use Ip firewall in:
Bridge - Settings

Try to disable all simple queue and then re-enable them all (or maybe better.. reboot the device).

Hi bajodel

It didn’t work at first. I disabled, reboot, even recreated all queues but the same behavior persisted.

After analizing what could be wrong, I noticed that the customers that were not being limited on the queues were using pppoe authentication. I thought that would not make any difference because the pppoe server is another router, it has nothing to do with this routerboard.

After enabling “Use IP Firewall For PPPoE” it started to work.

Thanks!!

well done!

ciao! :smiley:
