Mikrotik Queue Tree to limit total bandwidth of a ethernet port

I will show you how to manage the Mikrotik Queue Tree to limit the total bandwidth. For example you can split a 2Mbps bandwidth to 512Kbps per 4 users. In my example i’ll limit upload+download=2Mbps

First of all we need to mark the packets to be traced in the queue.

/ip firewall mangle

add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting in-interface=ether3 new-packet-mark=upload

add action=mark-packet chain=postrouting out-interface=ether3 new-packet-mark=download

Then we’ll set up the queue tree.

/queue tree

add max-limit=20M name=total-traffic parent=global queue=default

add name=upload packet-mark=upload parent=total-traffic queue=default

add name=download packet-mark=download parent=total-traffic queue=default




Thanks.
