You gain a lot more control over your network if you setup proper queuing on your edge ports.
If you are constantly oversubscribing then a queue type of RED or WRED makes sense, if not SFQ is likely the right choice. You always want to control dropping packets instead of relying on your providers. -- John Michael Francis II JMF Solutions, Inc Wavefly - Internet Voip Cloud INC 5000 #2593 CRN Fast Growth #105 251-517-5069 http://jmfsolutions.net http://wavefly.com On April 17, 2017 3:47:14 PM CDT, Robert Dillon via Mikrotik-users <[email protected]> wrote: >Thanks for the feedback, I agree and that was my first gut feel that >really, I need to do that....
