Manual:Queue
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). RouterOS support 3 virtual HTBs (global-in, global-total, global-out) and one more just before every outgoing interface.
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.
