Is there a tutorial on the traffic shaper in 2.0? I read the related FAQ or wiki page (now I forget which), I ran the wizard and found the results not only confusing, but inconsistent with my responses, and I have scoured the forums.
I don't understand why there is a floating interface, which is where the wizard puts all the rules it creates. I make rules on the other interfaces and found them ineffective. I don't understand why "quick" is the default for firewall rules, but optional for the shaper. I also found that option to be ineffective on the rules I created. I don't expect anybody to explain all these things here on the list; I don't even have a 2.0 instance booting at the moment. I just wanted to point out what appears to be a lack of documentation or intuitive interface so far. Is this covered more in-depth in the book? I haven't seen the book yet, but I would consider that an acceptable solution. Until I can figure out shaper 2.0 though, I'm afraid that release is not much use to me. I love pfsense, I'm just sayin', because feedback helps to make a good thing better. db --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
