Interface bandwidth settings
Posted: Wed Apr 06, 2011 9:04 am
Hi
I am trying to change the Bandwith (Rx/Tx) on the ethernet ports on a RB493
It does not allow anu speeds below 1M
Is there any other method of limiting bandwidth on ethernet ports?
This worked fine on the Routerboard 750, but wanted more ports.
Just for some background, I use this option to build a bandwidth limiting switch/bridge.
So I limit ether2 to 64k, ether3 to 128k and so on.....
Then I use simple snmp software to get instant stats on the interfaces for the clients testing needs.
