# LibreQoS
![Banner](docs/Banner.png "Banner")
LibreQoS is an application that allows you to apply fq_codel traffic shaping to hundreds of clients. <a href="https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/codel/wiki/">Fq_codel</a> is a Free and Open Source Active Queue Management algorithm that reduces bufferbloat, and can improve the quality of customer connections significantly. LibreQoS works with both IPv4 and IPv6. It apples hundreds of filter rules to direct customer traffic through individual fq_codel instances within an <a href="https://linux.die.net/man/8/tc-htb">HTB</a> (HTB+fq_codel). Please test to ensure compatability with your network architecture and design before deploying in production.
LibreQoS is an application that allows you to apply cake and fq_codel traffic shaping to hundreds of clients. <a href="https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/codel/wiki/Cake/">Cake</a> and <a href="https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/codel/wiki/">Fq_codel</a> are Free and Open Source Active Queue Management algorithms that reduce bufferbloat. When used to shape customers on an ISP network, they can improve the quality of connections significantly. LibreQoS directs each customer's traffic through an individual fq_codel instance, which act within a <a href="https://linux.die.net/man/8/tc-htb">hierarchical token bucket</a>. Please test to ensure compatability with your network architecture and design before deploying in production.
## Who is LibreQoS for?
This software is intended for small Internet Service Providers (<1000 subscribers). Larger Internet Service Providers may benefit more from using commercially supported alternatives with better NMS/CRM integrations such as Preseem or Saisei. Individuals wanting to reduce bufferbloat or latency on their home internet connections may want to try a home router supporting fq_codel, such as Ubiquiti's EdgeRouter-X (must enable advanced queue fq_codel).
