Upload Mark Adjustment with airSlate SignNow

Upload mark

let's have some mango exercise in microtech by marking upload and download traffic in this video i will demonstrate on how to use the built-in mangle facility of microtic mangle rules can mark connection and packets so in such a way we can mark our upload and download traffic for further processing like bandwidth assignments as i try to limit the length of this video we will have some demonstration conditions first is we will start with the microtech router os default configuration so we will not start from scratch second we won't be demonstrating upload or download files via software other than the browser so the browser of choice for this demonstration is google chrome and finally we will only focus on the forward chain of course we can mark traffic with other change as well okay i have a micro tick log in with the ip address one nine two one six eight eight eight at one will be the admin user as you can see i have the uplight model of the microtic and on the interfaces on the interface list we have the two default interface list lan which has the bridge interface and one which has the ether one interface let's check on our bridge interface so on the bridge menu we have a running bridge with member ports ether 2 3 4 and while in one so it's a default configuration as well let's go to ipdhcp client so ether1 is our default internet port or going to the upstream provider internet provider the ip firewall rules we have filter rules as default configuration default filter rules on the network address translation menu so we have our masquerade nut rule and on our mangle we have the special dummy rule for fast track counters if connections and packets are marked as fast track so it will bypass future facilities such as simple queue and q3 so we don't want that to happen in our upload and download traffic so you would like to handle those with our facilities so we may need to disable this fast track connection rule ipfilter rule by clicking x to disable that one and we have to do a system reboot on our microtech router in order to apply the changes made all right our router is rebooted as you can see on the logs the router is indeed rebooted so we go back on our ip firewall menu and see on the filter rules the dummy counters are gone as well as on our mongol facility i have a folder in my google drive download an upload test folder wherein we can upload or download this 20 mb zip file for our testing it is a good practice to use the built-in torch tool so we go to tools torch torch tool is micro ticks real-time traffic monitoring tool so we can monitor traffic flows for our upload and download traffic our objective is to monitor upload traffic so we'll select interface bridge we check the protocol and ports to include in our monitoring so as you can see there are some minimal traffic so we haven't started our uploading yet so you could see it has some small traffic flows so let's try now to upload our test files so we go to our google drive upload files browse through the 20 mb zip file and the uploading is started so let's go back on our micro tick as you can see we focus on this second line let's focus on the protocol and the port used so udp and https now that we have an idea on what protocol and port was used we can now go to our ip firewall mangle to create our first mangle by clicking the plus sign under general tab we go to chain and select forward forward as we want to capture packets passing through or micro tick protocol will be udp destination port will be 443 for https in interface list is lan out interface list is one so chain is forward protocol will be udp destination port because we are uploading going into our lan and coming out to our one under action tab in action setting so we select mark connection in new connection mark so descriptive name upload dash connection for this example passthrough will remain checked click apply click ok so we now have our first mangle rule it's a mark connection of forward traffic specifically udp 443 from land to one so this time we'll create another rule by clicking the plus sign and we go back to the general tab under chain will still be forward this time will not be doing any protocol matching so we'll do the in interface list will still be lan and our out interface list will be one however we'll add one more matching condition anything with a connection mark of upload connection okay so chain forward in interface list land one and you now have a connection mark that is upload dash connection we go to action tab and this time it's mark pocket so the new packet mark is another descriptive name in our case upload dash packet so we will uncheck the password as we want packets marked with upload dash packet retain its packet mark we now have our mangle rules to mark upload traffic so we are now ready to test to upload files we reset the counters for our two upload mangle rules so let's go back to our google drive and try to upload this 20 mb file now so let's wait okay so it is beginning to upload so as you can see we now have some reading on our two mangle rules we are uploading a 20 mb file so we should expect that at least this reading will reach 20 mb until the upload is completed so we check on our google drive upload and yes the upload is now complete let's have another round of real-time monitoring by using our torch tool this time we change the interface to ether1 as we are monitoring the download connection so let's start to monitor our traffic flows we don't have some significant traffic flows so let's do a download this time of this file okay so click download to begin the downloading okay so is now downloading the file let's go over to our torch tool and yes there is an ample amount of rx reading on our ether one interface the port and protocol it's still 443 and udp we go back to our mangle rules let's first comment the upload mangle rules let's go to action and click comment and type in a meaningful comment so for our case let's type upload mangle rules click apply click ok and we now have some comment let's click the plus sign to add a new mangle rule for our download connection so the chain will still be forward protocol will still be udp this time it will be source port 443 in interface list coming in to our one interface and going out to our lan interface okay so udp 4431 to lan in the action tab and the action setting we'll select mark connection for the new connection mark it will be download dash connection for this example we'll check the passthrough click apply click ok a quick review mark connection forward udp4431 to lan okay so click plus sign to add a new mangle rule the chain will still be forward no more protocol and port matching in interface is one out interface is land so this time there's a connection mark but we will select download connection the action setting let's mark the packet and the new packet mark will be download dash packet for this example and the passthrough will be unchecked click apply click ok let's have some meaningful comment first let's go to action comment let's comment it out download mangle rules and click ok so we now have some comment for our download mangle rules okay so we have mark connection and mark pocket let's click reset all counters to reset all counters on our manga rules so as you can see bytes and packets are zero let's download this 20 mb file and see if our download mangle rules will have some reading okay it's now downloading and as you can see there is a significant rise on the bytes and packets on our download mangle rules we are downloading a 20 mb file so you should be at least expecting a 20 mb reading as well so when it has no activity or reading so the download is done so let's re-upload again the file and see if it will read on the upload mangle rules instead of the download mangle rules so it's now uploading the 20 mb zip file let's go back on our mangle rules and focus on the bytes and packets on the upload mangle rules so there is no significant reading on the download it's on the upload mangle rules so meaning to say our manga rules distinguishes the upload and download traffic so in this mark upload and download traffic in microtic a mangle exercise in microtic so we have shown you as we've gone through the microtech router os default configuration so we just disable the fast track connection as we don't want our traffic to bypass future readings on other facilities such as simple queue and q3 so we disable the fast track connection and we reboot it after that we use the torch tool the real-time monitoring or traffic monitoring tool by micro tick in order to determine the protocol and ports for our download and upload traffic again for this exercise we limit ourselves in a condition wherein we only upload and download files via a browser and particularly google chrome there might be a different reading or different protocol and ports if you use other software or other browsers we created our upload mangle rules so we use the chain forward forward captures traffic passing through the micro tick router so the protocol will be udp the destination port as we are uploading is port 443 we also have the in interface list which is our lan the out interface list is one and we mark the connection properly we then proceeded to test to upload the files and determine if our mangle rules have really marked the upload traffic we have also created our mangle rules for our download connection the only difference is it is now using the source port instead of the destination port also the in interface and out interface list is reversed it's one to land this time with our testing via uploading and downloading of files by our google drive we have determined that our manga rules can properly mark the traffic in both directions with that i hope you find this video on how to mark upload and download traffic in microtic by a mangle facility helpful and use this as a guide in order to mark other traffic and use this marking for future implementation like quality of service thank you for
