Queuing is a mechanism that controls bandwidth allocation, delay variability, timely delivery, and delivery reliability. The MikroTik RouterOS supports the following queuing mechanisms: PFIFO - Packets Packet First-In First-Out, BFIFO - Bytes First-In First-Out, RED - Random Early Detection SFQ - Stochastic Fair Queuing The queuing can be used for limiting the bandwidth for certain IP addresses, protocols or ports.

If there is a desire to limit the traf
