- /queue simple menu - designed to ease configuration of simple, every day queuing tasks (such as single client upload/download limitation, p2p traffic limitation, etc.).
- /queue tree menu - for implementing advanced queuing tasks (such as global prioritization policy, user group limitations). Requires marked packet flows from /ip firewall mangle facility.
RouterOS provides a possibility to configure queue in 8 levels - the first level is an interface queue from "/queue interface" menu and the other 7 are lower-level queues that can be created in Queue Simple and/or Queue Tree.
