LibreQoS

A tool to traffic shape hundreds of clients and reduce bufferbloat using fq_codel. This is alpha software, please do not deploy in production.

Lab Requirements

  • Edge and Core routers with MTU 1500 on links between them
  • OSPF primary link (low cost) through the server running LibreQoS
  • OSPF backup link recommended Diagram

Server Requirements

  • VM or physical server
  • One management network interface
  • Two dedicated network interface cards, preferably SFP+ capable
  • Python 3
  • Recent Linux kernel
  • recent tc-fq_codel provided by package iproute2

Server Spec Recommendations

  • For up to 1Gbps
    • 4+ CPU cores
    • 6GB RAM
    • 32GB Disk Space
    • Passmark score of 13,000 or more (AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or better)
  • For up to 2Gbps
    • 6+ CPU cores
    • 8GB RAM
    • 32GB Disk Space
    • Passmark score of 17,000 or more (AMD Ryzen 5 3600 or better)
  • For up to 5Gbps
    • 8+ CPU cores
    • 16GB RAM
    • 32GB Disk Space
    • Passmark score of 23,000 or more (AMD Ryzen 7 3800X or better)
  • For up to 10Gbps
    • 16+ CPU cores
    • 32GB RAM
    • 32GB Disk Space
    • Passmark score of 38,000 or more (AMD Ryzen 9 3950X or better)

Features

  • HTB + fq_codel
  • Experimental support for CAKE (Common Applications Kept Enhanced)
  • TC filters divided into groups with hashing filters to significantly increase efficiency and minimize RAM usage

How to use

  • Add linux interface bridge br0 to the two dedicated interfaces
    • For example on Ubuntu Server 20.04 which uses NetPlan, you would add the following to the .yaml file in /etc/netplan/
bridges:
    br0:
      interfaces:
           - eth4
           - eth5
  • Modify setting parameters in LibreQoS.py to suit your environment
  • Run:
sudo python3 ./LibreQoS.py

Integration

  • UNMS/UCRM
