Maybe someone can help point me in the right direction here. I am trying to use mikrotik (v2.8.24) to help with bandwidth management. Basically, I need to see if the mikrotik box can help to throttle servers to a preset bandwidth limit (bursting/etc. would also be nice, but first things first). I believe the usage of VLANs in our network is causing the issue, but I cannot seem to find a way around it yet. Here is the layout:
| Internet | —> | Cisco router | —> | Summit 4 switch | —> | mikrotik box | —> | summit 48 switch | —> customers.
The Summit 4 has vlan definitions for each end customer, and each port on the summit 48 translates to a different customer (and, therefore, a different vlan). Now, getting the bridge set up was simple enough - the mikrotik box is passing traffic fine and is currently inline. Queues, however, do not seem to be working. I followed the instructions from the main site to get queues set up and they were working in my test environment (which, unfortunately has a different setup from production at the moment - I was testing to get a feel for the configuration of the software). When I try the same configuration in our production environment, I see no traffic on the queues. Any pointers?
