Hi, I'm having problems with queue and QoS, I'm working with mininet on this topology:
h1--------- s1-------s2--------h3 h2-------- h1 and h2 are connected on the switch s1 and host h3 is connected to switch s2, in particular h3 is connected on port s2-eth1 on the switch s2, and the switch s1 is connected on the port s2-eth2, all the links are 100Mb/s, the version of ovs that I’m using is 2.4.0. I want to create a queue on port s2-eth2 in order to limit the rate at 3Mb/s, so for first i create the qos on port s2-eth2 and after that I create the queue, finally i insert the flow entry in order to connect the packet flow to the queue, to do this i use this sequence of command: ovs-vsctl -- set Port s2-eth2 qos=@newqos -- --id=@newqos create QoS type=linux-htb ovs-vsctl -- add QoS s2-eth2 Queue 1=@queue -- --id=@queue create Queue other-config:max-rate=3000000 when I run the command: ovs-vsctl list qos ovs-vsctl list queue ovs-vsctl list port s2-eth2 qos the result is: _uuid : 1d1e8a1a-e95a-420c-bff3-2012c2ea1188 external_ids : {} other_config : {} queues : {1=20239989-e620-436a-a5f7-ce81fccf0369} type : linux-htb ------------------------------------------------ _uuid : 20239989-e620-436a-a5f7-ce81fccf0369 dscp : [] external_ids : {} other_config : {max-rate="3000000"} ------------------------------------------------ _uuid : ff9cf32a-41c5-4cd9-8e80-c31f71f5b6c2 bond_active_slave : [] bond_downdelay : 0 bond_fake_iface : false bond_mode : [] bond_updelay : 0 external_ids : {} fake_bridge : false interfaces : [a8a1d572-c10a-4e96-a0b1-b5dbd128f880] lacp : [] mac : [] name : "s2-eth2" other_config : {} qos : 1d1e8a1a-e95a-420c-bff3-2012c2ea1188 rstp_statistics : {} rstp_status : {} statistics : {} status : {} tag : [] trunks : [] vlan_mode : [] So it seems that the qos, queue and port are well configured, after that i add this flow entry: ovs-ofctl add-flow s2 priority=100,tcp,nw_dst=10.0.0.1,actions=set_queue:1,output:2 so it should take all the tcp packet directed to h1(10.0.0.1) and insert them in the queue,but when i run an iperf test on mininet between h3 and h1 it gives this result: mininet> iperf h3 h1 *** Iperf: testing TCP bandwidth between h3 and h1 *** Results: ['90.0 Mbits/sec', '90.9 Mbits/sec'] so the rate limiting of the queue is not applied otherwise the result of the iperf test would have been 3Mb/s. I tried also to insert the flow entry: ovs-ofctl add-flow s2 priority=100,tcp,nw_dst=10.0.0.1,actions=enqueue:2:1 but the result is the same. There's something that i'm doing wrong? How i can resolve this problem? Many thanks in advance.
