Queue Simple: time option doesn't work

Wed Aug 29, 2007 2:52 am

Hi!

I'm trying to make a simple thing:

Give more bandwidth for some hours (e.g. at night) to some users.

There is queues for each user limiting World and Local traffic, so I go on and added a copy of World queue, with increased limit and time applied just before old queue.

My idea was that this "timed" queue will override the old one for the specified period (night) and when this period comes to an end it will stop working and the usual one will be working again.

But "timed" queue being keeps active even after it's time is over.

Any ideas what I might forgot?

Two queues should be created, firstly queue with time option should be placed, then queue without time.
Which version do you use and what 'time' configuration at 'queue simple' is working all the time for you ?

That is exactly what I'm doing!

MT v2.9.6

Here is snippet from Queue Simple to show the problem:
 4   name="user-night" target-addresses=192.168.1.8/32 dst-address=0.0.0.0/0
      interface=all parent=none packet-marks=World Clients Traffic priority=8
      queue=pcq-download/pcq-upload limit-at=112000/112000
      max-limit=196000/196000 total-queue=default
      time=0h00m-8h00m,sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat

5    name="user-normal" target-addresses=192.168.1.8/32
      dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 interface=all parent=none
      packet-marks=World Clients Traffic priority=8
      queue=pcq-download/pcq-upload limit-at=112000/112000
      max-limit=164000/164000 burst-limit=172000/172000
      burst-threshold=112000/112000 burst-time=15s/15s total-queue=default
Queue #4 works always, even after 8:00.

Any ideas?

Firstly you have to upgrade RouterOS to the latest version.
