Re: [pfSense-discussion] Traffic shaper bug ?

2008-03-21 Thread Daniele Guazzoni

What should I say, thanks to Ermal and to the core pfSense team !
Is there already a release date for the 1.3 ?

I'm also taking beta... :-)

For 1.2, it should be noted.

For 1.3, Ermal has done a nice job completely rewriting the traffic 
shaper to accommodate these kinds of situations and more. The traffic 
shaper in 1.2 only works properly with two interface setups (LAN and WAN).

Right now I'm running traffic shaping on an extra pfSense box, just to
avoid this multi interface issue. Planning to move away to a bare
FreeBSD/PF/ALTQ setup because of this, would prefer to stay with pfSense
however.
Do you have any clue when the new features become available?

One suggestion: give us an option to bypass this annoying traffic
shaping wizard. I know it's possible to delete the generated setup once
the wizard has completed, but that's not really nice for those who
cannot use the standard setup.

Another suggestion: it would make a real difference if it were possible
to make rules without specifying *both* the incoming and outgoing
interface. ALTQ has that option, so perhaps you are planning that already.

best regards,
Jan Hoevers
