DESIGN OF A TRAFFIC RATE PRIORITY NETWORK CONNECTION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM ON A COMPUTER NETWORK

Abstract

The practicum laboratory is one of the university facilities that accompany your studies, where students can practice their understanding of learning concepts through tests or practical exercises. In this sense the role of the laboratory is very important because the laboratory is a center for teaching and learning, where lectures are used for experiments, research or research. For this reason, in order to expedite the teaching and learning process, adequate facilities are needed in the laboratory, one of which is the Network. However, there are a number of problems that occur where when students download, zoom browsing activity becomes slow. Of course this will make the teaching and learning process less efficient. Based on the problems above, the author wants to conduct research by providing different bandwidth allocations and managing user bandwidth based on priority. The mangle method is used to mark data packets based on port, protocol, src and etc. addresses, and the simple queue method is used to set the amount of bandwidth and priority for each user. From the results of functional testing or research, it can be concluded that the results of applying the mangle method are used to mark a packet that will be restricted based on the configured dst port and the Simple Queue method as a determinant for setting the priority given to each user so that when the user uses zoom access, global, games and others can use the internet network smoothly without internet interference because traffic rate priority and bandwidth management has been carried out.
