Good Day Guys.

I installed FreeBSD 5.3 and everything worked fine .
i recompiled the kernel included options for
   IPDIVERT
   IPFIREWALL
   IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
   BRIDGE

everything went fine

i did the systcl to load the two network cards as should be
     sysctl net.link.ether.bridge.config=rl0:0,rl1:0
     sysctl net.link.ether.bridge.ipfw=1
     sysctl net.link.ether.bridge.enable=1



schema
client 1 FreeBSD bridge
/------------------\ /-----------------------\ /------------------------\
a.b.c.d |----------------------|rl0 - -rl1|-----------------| external network|
\------------------/ \-----------------------/ \------------------------/


so far everything is working fine .

now my internal network is connected physically to rl0.

i want to rate limit ip a.b.c.d from internal network to 32Kbit uplink and 128Kbit downlink .....

in the manual and documention given on the sites it helps but not on the same network card as needed in here !

i was successfull to rate limit uplink but not downlink ! as such

ipfw pipe 1 config bw 32Kbit/s queue 4Kbyte
ipfw add pipe 1 all from a.b.c.d to any in recv rl0 # uplink limitation works fine


ipfw pipe 2 config bw 128Kbit/s queue 4Kbyte
ipfw add pipe 2 all from any to a.b.c.d out xmit rl0 # downlink doesn't match



if there is something i missed then feel free to guide me . else if its possible for someone parse his/her connfiguration

Thanks
F. B.
