Queues

Submenu level: /queue

Queue implementation in MikroTik RouterOS is based on Hierarchical Token Bucket (HTB). HTB allows to create hierarchical queue structure and determine relations between queues(parent-child, child priority).

In RouterOS it is possible to add queue in 4 different places (HTBs):

global-in — represents all the input interfaces in general (INGRESS queue). Queues attached to global-in apply to traffic that is received by the router before the packet filtering
global-out — represents all the output interfaces in general (EGRESS queue).
global-total —
<interface name> —

There are two ways how to add queues in RouterOS:

/queue simple menu - more user-friendly implementation of queues designed to ease configuration of simple,everyday queuing tasks (such as single client upload/download limitation, p2p traffic limitation, etc.).
/queue tree menu - simplest way to implement advanced queuing tasks (such as global prioritization policy, user group limitations) require market packet flows from /ip firewall mangle facility.

-Queue implementation in MikroTik RouterOS is based on Hierarchical Token Bucket (HTB). HTB allows to create hierarchical queue structure and determine relations between queues(parent-child, child priority). RouterOS support 3 virtual HTBs (global-in, global-total, global-out) and one more just before every outgoing interface.
