@aki, VLANs might help to some extend but only to stop network broadcast which is helpful to some extend, Rate-limiting being a form of QoS will help a great deal and probably add traffic shaping On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 8:19 PM, aki <aki275@googlemail.com> wrote:

Guys, wondering on the VLANS and rate limiting first, before we go down MTUs? Ok, I've been out of touch with dist networks for a long while, so am catching up on the technologies in deployment locally. Wimax, Fiber. I assume that they are all using VLANS for circuits and rate limiting applied to set circuit throughputs, am I correct in thinking this? In case of point-point and point to multi-point? And is rate limiting still used to set some part of SLAs? Or have the entire industry headed towards wi-fi broadband concept?
Rgds.
