It is not enabled in the gui, but available via an example script that integrates into their configuration language. Testing showed it worked well up until above 100mbit on the upload side. There were some problems on rate limiting downloads above 100mbit that remain unresolved, but most of the rest of the results were pretty darn good. It is significantly higher power hardware than what cerowrt uses, built around a modified version of the vyatta OS (linux 3.4 based) running on an octeon dual core processor. (there are 5+ models of this router, I think one uses an even higher end octeon). It CAN forward at gigE rates, unlike most low end home router hardware, where only the switch can handle gigE. There is no BQL support, so this release is targetted at software rate limiting and managing common uplinks like cable and dsl. I don't think the bloat list is really a good place for announcements of this sort[1], so I will refrain in the future... but it was very inspiring to see the enthusiasm and excitement this development spurred on the ubnt forums, and this is the first example of a deployment on commonly available commercial hardware, with the support of the manufacturer. Other deployments (such as free.fr's) are private to their own boxes, or rebranded (such as streamboost), or done in the aftermarket (openwrt, dd-wrt, cerowrt, ipfire, shorewall, etc) -- Dave Täht [1] Aside from ubnt buying me lunch I have no relationship with them at present. _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
