UBNT EdgeRouter Lite; Performance
-
Some years ago- I modified my ERl for the ISP service I had at that time, Now that it's been upgraded, it's past time to update it. But of course, I don't recall the modifications I made in the config.boot file.
Looking through the config file, it would seem that I need to make adjustments to the Traffic-Policy, but cannot recall if this is correct or not.
traffic-policy { shaper VoIP { bandwidth 2mbit class 10 { bandwidth 75% burst 15k ceiling 100% description "VoIP RTP Traffic" match RTP { ip { dscp 46 } } queue-type fair-queue } class 20 { bandwidth 5% burst 15k ceiling 100% description "VoIP SIP Traffic" match ICMP { ip { protocol ICMP } } match SIP { ip { dscp 26 } } queue-type fair-queue } default { bandwidth 20% burst 15k ceiling 100% queue-type fair-queue } } }
ISP down - was 10MB is now 100MB (speed test will hit 120MB - likely need to set the threshold to 200MB
ISP up - was 1MB up, is now 2MB up, might set this to 10MB - unlikely to reach that but...I'd rather like to avoid a factory reset - and I'm certain I don't need to. Just update the config and reboot. @JaredBusch - may have made suggestions on this previously.

Assuming you are on current firmware, delete all of that and use the built in stuff.
configure delete interfaces ethernet eth0 traffic-policy # something like this. delete traffic-policy commit;save;exit
Run speed tests with no policies. You should have near line speed.
Then pop into the GUI and set up a smart-queue on the QoS tab. You will want values at least 10% higher than your internet line speed. Tweak until you have just under line speed on speedtests. Fro details on how that all works, peruse the UBNT forums.

You need to switch to a different unit to get 200mbps with traffic shaping. I do not know off the top of my head if an ER-X will do it or not.

Do I need to 'list' the traffic policy to ensure the correct one - or is it a 'There is Only One'?
ETA:
No - not needed.show traffic-policy
is teh same as what is pulled from the config.boot in OP. -
Deleted the
traffic-policy
This is with 14Mbit upload and 150Mbit download:
This is with the download policy turned off.
-
Added 10Mbit Burst
and then 10Mbit burst with 200Mbit rate
-
Performance seems best with Upload set and download off....

Those numbers seem about right for a EdgeRouter Lite. If you need QoS enabled for download, you'll either need to upgrade or just live with the slowdown.
