Hi Guys

I have setup a basic LAB environment to test WMM capabilities but I found no improvement

Maybee I am confused with what it actually does so please correct me if I have not implemented it correctly. Please see attachment:

The Providers edge are 2x RB433's connected wirlessly and all the other connections are ethernet.

This is how I tested it:

1) Configured WMM as per attachment and the priority is correctly assigned to the packets. I checked this by having this rule to the PE routers and the counters went up when I made a call:

/ip firewall mangle
add action=passthrough chain=forward comment="" disabled=no ingress-priority=7

2) Made a call and the quality was good

3) Did a UDP bandwidth test from PE - PE and voice quality dropped

It this the correct implementation of WMM or does it only help when there is enough throughput?

thanks

2) Made a call and the quality was good
3) Did a UDP bandwidth test from PE - PE and voice quality dropped

So what do you expect to happen? You're flooding the line with traffic doing a bandwidth test, obviously the call quality will drop.... It will drop even on Ethernet...

Ok let me re phrase the question....When/how is WMM supposed to be used?

I understand that it divides the station's traffic into "4" access categories but how does that help if the link is saturated?
