    You can use aliases to act as IP groups. Create a PRIQ-based shaper which is one of the simplest. Create your 3 levels of queue with different priorities and then use floating firewall rules to direct traffic from an alias into the proper queue based on protocol or IP group.

    I had the same problem. I ended up removing the firewall entry and removed my limiters and added them again.

    @tman222 Thanks for the information. I did 1024 and 975 and I'm getting A+ across the board with 2-3 bufferbloat.

  • Limiting guest vlan to specific mbits up/down

    @vanapagan said in Limiting guest vlan to specific mbits up/down:

    We have a specific vlan we allow wireless guests to log in with. It goes directly to the internet and cannot reach anything internal. How do we limit that vlan to take no more than 10% of the upstream or downstream traffic? All other vlans will share the other 90% equally.
    So if I have a 100mbit up/down I want the wireless guests to consume no more than 10% (10mbits) and leave the other 90mbits to the other vlans.
    I've been playing with shaping and limiting but not have had any good results. I am at the point of not seeing the forest for the trees.

    I have a setup with multiple VLANs and a "guest" one and I've now setup limiters with weights, which allows guests to use all bandwidth if it's available... effectively implementing borrowing. So far Quick Fair Queueing works with Codel queues but if I use PRIO scheduler I get kernel panics :)

    I do have to add the In/Out pipe manually to each VLAN rule that allows VLAN traffic out to the world (to be NAT'ed)

    I have been following the fq_codle thread for quite some time, and the video clearly goes against what has been established in the thread. to name a few inconsistencies. ECN, Masks and AQMs.

    @valeriy said in Limiter queue weights:

    In Theory this is how it should work, but in practice I have seen some weird numbers on 2 queues..

    My guess you should simulate the load, observe and correct the values. In fact, I have suspicion that it does not work as supposed and maybe it is broken? I have some strange outcome after setting up my limiters similar to your setup:
    I have 5-10 hosts in one queue and 1 host in another queue, in order to achieve 50/50 bandwidth split I had to adjust value to 20 in first queue and 80 in second queue (with one host). My guess is that while using dynamic queuing, that share is applied per host, rather than queue.

    This is also a question I have. Basically, I have two populations that I'd like to manage.

    Main users, should have 90% bandwidth at saturation guest users, should have 10% at saturation.

    I can see that this should work if I simply have two queues with no masks, otherwise things may get tricky since the number of clients on each pool will impact the overall competition for bandwidth. Is there a way to have two populations sharing a global limiter but client competition is within each population?

    Actually, I have this this issue on two different boxes. Very different hardware on them. 2.4.3+ on both. Removing shapper can kill the WAN interface, only reboot will restore it.

    I moved your post - it sure wasn't anything to do with forum feedback. Also - running 2.1.1 of pfsense.. If you want help with anything your going to need to be current.
