9 Scenario 3: Metering
Introduction To explain interface base metering we will take the setup from the previous scenario.
The total upload bandwidth availlable for this scenario is 512Kbps.
We reserved 50% of this bandwidth for EF traffic, meaning 256Kbps.
Now we would like to limit the bandwidth availlable for the Bronze group to 64Kbps.
Configuration To configure this meter proceed as followed:
1 Go to the IP QoS page and select the Meter tab.
Expert mode -> IP Router -> IP QoS
Here you can add meters by clicking on the New button.
This will show you a configuration screen like shown in the figure above.
Now proceed as followed:
2 Set Name to Bronze meter.
3 Set Interface to lan3.
4 Set Label to none (we use interface based metering).
5 Set Drop rate to 64.
6 Set Drop action to drop.
7 Set Mark rate to 60.
8 Set Mark action to mark.
9 Set Burst size to 2.
10 Set Marking to disabled.
11 Set Classification to ignore.
12 Set Class to 0.
13 Click Apply to add the meter to the list.
