Queue Priority Confused

Hi all,

I had confused on the queue priority concept. For example, I had a backbone 50Mbps, and i had done the queue configuration as below

/queue simple
add max-limit=5M/5M name=queue1 target=192.168.1.2/32
add max-limit=5M/5M name=queue2 target=192.168.1.3/32
add max-limit=5M/5M name=queue3 target=192.168.1.4/32
add max-limit=20M/20M name=queue4 target=192.168.1.0/24
add max-limit=30M/30M name=queue4 target=192.168.2.0/24

If in a scenario, 192.168.1.2~4 is keep used 5M (total 15M concurrent running) and i had a user IP 192.168.1.5, can this user use until 20Mbps? or only 5M? as 15M already used by 192.168.1.2~4 and 192.168.1.5~254 should only can use 5M only.

IP 192.168.1.5 will use 20mbit. you can first create a parent with target=192.168.1.0/24 20M/20M and then use this parent in child 192.168.1.x

or maybe PCQ will do better job in your case.

Hi sash,

Thanks for the reply, which means 192.168.1.2~5 can used 35M?
