It's simpler than that, actually; if you don't specify the interface
in the "queue" directive, it applies to all interfaces that use altq.
If you're using the same bandwidth/priority on every interface, you
only need list the queues once.
I'm not sure what the 3.9 docs said, this is what the current OS has
to say about "queue...on" in pf.conf(5):
on <interface>
Specifies the interface the queue operates on. If not given, it
operates on all matching interfaces.
I've tried to clean up the manual and faq in this area but despite
the fact it's not entirely clear as-is, it's been surprisingly
difficult to come up with anything better.
Glad you got it working (and that we now have some more in the
list archives to hopefully help others :-)
