1. Interface Rate Limiting ( on Interface )
- For instance:
> sudo ovs-vsctl set Interface eth1 ingress_policing_burst=1000
2. Port QoS Policy ( on Port )
- For instance:
-- --id=@newqos create qos type=linux-htb \
other-config:max-rate=200000000 queues=0=@q0,1=@q1 \
-- --id=@q0 create queue \
other-config:min-rate=100000000 \
other-config:max-rate=100000000 \
-- --id=@q1 create queue \
other-config:min-rate=50000000 \
other-config:max-rate=50000000
- Qos can have more than 1 queue

Have you tested the point 1 - 1. Interface Rate Limiting ( on Interface )?
Because I have tested with the configuration equal to what you have and the rate limitation do not work.
Have you tested with netperf or iperf?

Thank you for your question. Actually I didn't test this. But, my information is from Open vSwitch offical web site as the following URL:
http://openvswitch.org/support/config-cookbooks/qos-rate-limiting/
They indeed do the test with netperf and it indeed works.
Hello,
Thanks for the tip.
In point 2 in the command is really necessary after the "...type=linux-htb" the command "other-config:max-rate=200000000"?
What for the "other-config:max-rate=200000000" is used if the queues have there one "other-config:max-rate" defined?
Can you advise me?
Best Regards,
Marco
About point 2, it is related with Port QoS Policy. A port could be assigned more than one QoS policy. So it is the reason why my example has 2 queues with that port. You definitely can remove them once your QoS setting is fitted for your requirement. For more information in details, please refer to this URL:

At page 22 ~ 26, you will see more explaination there.
hi danny..
did u try that QoS configuration?
now i'm trying to implement it onto my network within my tap interface, n i use ingress policing, but it failed,
n if i limiting using egress, it only worked for eth not for my tap.
if u suceed make it using those conf, can u explain me why my conf getting fail?
i've already asking this question on OVS mailing list, but still couldn't get the fit answer,,
thanx..

Hi lanny,
As I mentioned in early comment, I didn't test in real case. Sorry! Why I survey QoS is because I once wanted to add extension QoS function in Quantum OVS plug-in. But, I didn't do it.
I don't know your configuration. Could you let me see yours?
