    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    VLANs on a single switch do not require tagging, at least on real switches. I suppose this lightweight SoC implementation puts tags on them so it can deal with it?

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    Even as stripped down as it is, you could not possibly confuse this router with a dumb switch.

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    This looks worse than it is, due to offsets in the collection; low one interval, then catches up the next (or vice versa). I have an expensive switch with SNMP that I could just create a two-port VLAN on and pass the data through it, but it's really not worth that. I get that this is a...

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    Tagging and logical interfaces would seem to be two different things. I would expect the logical interface to exist and the counters to be collected. IIRC, VLAN2 shows up if you turn on the IPTV feature as that seems to be implemented as a VLAN.

    And would hurt performance (or would gut Hardware Acceleration). I would at least think the WAN port would be a dedicated VLAN, though.

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    To me that seems a strange architecture for a ROUTER.

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    ifconfig shows no VLAN2. I have a VLAN2 counter, but the OpStatus is down, and the counter sits at 0. I assumed that if I turned on IPTV, then this would be multicast traffic on the ports that were IPTV and LAN1 would lose the multicast traffic. I've got the traffic measuring by IP feature...

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    I decided to graph the other counters and see what I saw and to graph the difference between what I expected (Gateway eth0 in) and what I was getting from the ASUS eth0 out. Bottom center is the difference between them. Notice how nicely it correlates to vlan1 out (upper right, green)...

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    I'm reading byte counters every 10 seconds, both here and on the Gateway (which takes 2.5 seconds to paint that page... grrr). I did the download test from both a wired PC and one 5 minutes later on the 5 GHz Wi-FI. Here are the charts of the Gateway WAN, the Gateway LAN to the ASUS, the ASUS...

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    I'm not reading any MIBs on the Gateway at all, because I have to screen scrape to get the byte counters. Perhaps I should have put some callouts in the comparison above, but you can see periods where Gateway Out = ASUS In, and Gateway In = ASUS Out and they track perfectly. But there are...

    SNMP byte counters on an AC1900P (RT-AC68U)

    I have a ASUS AC1900P running Merlin v386.5_2 I've been setting up a Graphite monitoring system for my little network. I'm screen scraping my AT&T provided Gateway for interface counters but I wanted to also verify them by getting the byte counts from the ASUS router as well. I discovered the...

    Slow Internet after enabling Traffic Monitoring/Analyzer (RT-AC68U)

    I've been looking at the traffic monitoring feature in the ASUSWRT software as well. One thing that I've noticed is that it seems to be limited to TCP / UDP traffic, e.g. when an IPSEC tunnel comes up on a node, it no longer gets counted. I'm wondering if VNSTAT is the answer to this issue.

    Slower speeds on RT-AC68U compared to ISP supplied router, especially upload on a wired conn.

    I'm thinking that the speed test in the router is single threaded, i.e. not attempting multiple streams from different sources like the web client and Windows app are.

    Strange issue losing Internet Connection

    I do not see that option. I will assume that it's removed in the Merlin fork so that ASUS doesn't get reports that may be caused by Merlin changes.

    Strange issue losing Internet Connection

    As I said above, I already made the behavior go away. It isn't necessary to go bare metal to fix it. If I had a separate test network I might do that and try to create a tight reproducer of the problem, by returning to bare-metal, turning on Dual WAN with auto-failover then disabling Dual WAN...
