Burstable Bandwith and PPPoE

n5ltc · Sun Jun 13, 2004 7:10 am

Is there some way to allow bursting while using PPPoE? I would like to be able to return the burst and bandwidth control info via a radius attribute. If this doesn't work, is there a way to setup simple queues or queue trees to do the same thing? I have not been able to get it to work because the IP is a /32 assigned by PPPoE. I would not like to enter every IP in a pool into the queue trees. I need to be able to set speeds based on username and not IP.

I too would love to be able to set this but just using the MT PPP profiles. The facility would seem to be there as when a shaped ppp user connects via PPPoE a simple queue is created for them, this simple queue has burstable bandwidth....

MT can you put these settings in?

Or, maybe better will be to have a way to specify a login/logout scripts in ppp profiles and/or via radius ...

Use "Ascend-Data-Rate" attribute
It write dynamic simple queue on connect

nhalachev:
You may use system scripts for it.

Check /ppp active some times
and make some actions

Yes , i can check with scripts - there is also an example at Mikrotik web site in scripting examples.
But i think checking regulary for active ppp connections is not right way to go.

I user Ascend-Data-Rate, but it doesn't allow for bursting. That is really what I need.
