QoS between internal networks

rmakosiy
Hi,

I need to limit bandwidth between two hosts which are located in two different internal networks. These 2 networks are connected to one ASG7.2 Internal interface. Also I dont want to limit any other traffic coming in or out internal interface. Is it possible?

My configuration

Network -> QoS -> Status
Internal
Total available uplink bandwidth: 1048576 kbits/sec (1gb/sec)
Total available downlink bandwidth: 1048576 kbits/sec (1gb/sec)

Network -> QoS -> Traffic Selector
Host1(Network1)->Any->Host2(Network2)

Network -> QoS -> Bandwidth pool
Bandwidth (kbit/s): 500kb/sec
Specify upper bandwidth limit
Limit (kbit/s): 500kb/sec
Traffic Selectors:
Host1 to Host2

but it is not working. The hosts still take the hole available bandwidth when communicating to each other.

Please help

Thanks,
Roman

    That's the thing. I cannot enable QoS on additional address/interface. In the QoS settings I can see phisical interfaces only, no additional addresses/interfaces. Does it mean that this configuration is impossible?

    Thanks,

    I don't understand why this would ever work. QOS is for prioritization, not restricting bandwidth. 

    If you want to limit bandwidth on a specific server, configure it's connection to your switches at a lower speed.

    Are you still facing this issue or is it resolved?
    Configuring it should be possible if both networks use astaro as gateway. All you need to do is put bandwidth limitations on 1 interface (physical one) and the other should automatically comply. same should be the case with the bandwidth pools. 

    Besides, the rule you added should control traffic one way. If the other host turns out to be the source then it should consume all available traffic. try to add 2 rules in that Host1->Host2 and Host2->Host1.

    Thanks,
