VoIP QoS not working correctly

Mon Jul 07, 2014 4:37 pm

We have a queue tree set up to prioritize traffic coming from our PBX, however, even if we slam the downstream connection with a steam download, calls will break up pretty bad. Marked the connection and packets in the firewall. Are we doing this right?

Screenshot in link below.

Has anyone successfully implemented solid QoS in these routers? Can't seem to find anyone who's got a working setup.

Well, what jumps out to me from the screenshot is that nothing is hitting the SIP_IN and SIP_OUT queues for your queue tree. Can you post the results of /ip firewall mangle export compact and /queue tree export compact?

This is not from the same router as above, but one of our clients, we generally use the same setup for everyone.

I can't speak for simple queues, but I use DSCP for my ShoreTel VoIP system and it works perfectly.

Can you post an example? I'm willing to try anything at this point.

my phones and voice switches tag voice packets with dscp_46, and SIP with dscp_26.

Are you hitting 100% CPU at these times? It may just be that you are exceeding the limits of the device. If there isn't overhead available there will be issues.

I wouldn't think so with an RB2011.

Worth checking Steam is basically a flood of UDP packets. So its much harder on the connection tracking and will come closer to the 64-byte speed measurements Mikrotik publishes.

Also check that your buffers of any parent queues that steam and VoIP packets share.
