      Doers it return if you reload the ruleset in Status > Filter Reload?

      Does it return if you reboot?

        Performing a Filter Reload

        Sadly, the Limiters configuration is not present in the GUI.

        I don't want to restart the firewall now that its working but i don't think it will help in this case (could be wrong tho)

          Do they exist in /tmp/config.cache?

              Just spitballing, but could it be a browser/browser cache issue? Try another browser, another machine? 🤷

                @provels nothing is off the table.

                I just tried FF and the problem is still there.

                Hate to say it again but this looks like that redmine bug i noted above. Limiter just disappears after a reboot. The only difference is that the OP was setting a high limit (~4Gbps) while i am using 50Mbps

                  I would think that rebooting to make sure the Limiters are loaded from the config as expected should be the next step if you can.

                    Thanks for the report. I've opened a redmine for this here https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/16051 and will post a workaround there later.

                      @marcosm dont think that redmine is relevant here, no?

                      You mean this one. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/16051

                      So its something to do with MIM enabled. Very interesting. Is there a commitID i can try to test?

                            I've updated the redmine with additional info that you can test out if you'd like.

                              Confirmed that once i applied the PHP code the limiters came back (no reboot needed) and can be applied.

                              Got this notice as well.

                              86c83bca-e246-448e-a044-a49f9b496681-image.png

                              If i reboot my firewall again, do i have to re-apply this PHP code?

                              25.03 i take it has the perm fix.

                                No, patches survive a reboot. They may not survive an update but, yes, this would be in 25.03 anyway so you shouldn't need to do anything.
