# LibreQoS
![Banner](docs/Banner.png "Banner")
LibreQoS is a <a href="https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/cerowrt/wiki/Smart_Queue_Management/">smart queue management (SQM)</a> system that allows ISPs to intelligently apply bandwidth rate limiting to hundreds or thousands of clients using htb+cake or htb+fq_codel. <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 Active Queue Management algorithms that reduce <a href="https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/bloat/wiki/Introduction/">bufferbloat</a>. When used in the context of an ISP network, these AQMs can be used when setting bandwidth limits on customer traffic - reducing latency, enforcing advertised plan bandwidth, and improving overall network performance. LibreQoS directs each customer's traffic into a <a href="https://linux.die.net/man/8/tc-htb">hierarchy token bucket</a>, where traffic can be shaped both by Access Point capacity and by the subscriber's allocated plan bandwidth. Please test to ensure compatability with your network architecture and design before deploying in production.

## Who is LibreQoS for?
This software is intended for Internet Service Providers, particularly Fixed Wireless Internet Service Providers. Large Internet Service Providers with thousands of subscribers may benefit more from using commercially supported alternatives with NMS/CRM integrations such as <a href="https://preseem.com/">Preseem</a> or <a href="https://www.saisei.com/">Saisei</a>.
