Re: [pfSense] Limit bandwith pr user / ip
Thank you Chris! Since I am interested in this too, are there any tricks when you want to do the same but you have a multi-WAN setup, or ,probably even worse, a multi-WAN setup with different WAN bandwidth?

You can limit using captive portal, also. 2014-11-02 4:15 GMT-02:00 Vassilis V. bigracc...@gmx.net: Thank you Chris!

With multi-WAN, you would probably want to create a limiter set for each WAN, then set the limiters with floating Match rules on the WAN interfaces in the outbound direction. That way you would have different limiters for each WAN. You could restrict the limit to traffic from certain interfaces with source “LAN net” etc. Just a guess but that’d be what I would try. Note that if you set them on a rule with interface direction “out the In/Out directions are reversed, and the perspective will be from WAN instead of LAN, so you want to be sure they’re not backwards. ___ List mailing list List@lists.pfsense.org https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
