Traffic Shaping
Shaping values set here define the parameters for managing bandwidth at the node.
Mesh traffic is the data passed through this node from carried on behalf of other nodes in the mesh. Routing traffic is the data sent between nodes to establish routes.
enable shaping:
Turn Shaping on or off
optimize traffic:
Optimisation should improve performance
eth bandwidth:
Define the speed of the Ethernet network
wlan0 bandwidth:
Define the speed of the wireless network
mesh down:
mesh up:
mesh down burst:
mesh up burst:
Mesh upload and download rates are set here, they can be exceeded up to the value of the burst limit if there is spare capacity available on the network.
routing down:
routing up:
routing down burst:
routing up burst:
Routing bandwidth settings are important to ensure that the network can remain intact.
Gateway max per node:
Specifies the maximum amount of gateway bandwidth which can be consumed by any one node
Gateway optimization priority:
Low latency
High bandwidth
Gateway compress traffic:
can provide performance improvements but extra processing load for the nodes
