Outbound Traffic Limit to IP
-
I have a problem in my office when people are uploading a video to our streaming video system. The videos are usually a couple hundred meg and the outbound pipe gets flooded.
I want to limit upload to a specific ip.
I've tried setting up a floating rule for outbound traffic and set the outbound in/out to my limiter rule of 1mbit/sec
I set the inbound of the in/out to my limiter of 1gbit/sec
destination is set to the specific ip.
Wan is chosen as well as outbound on the direction.
Any idea why it's not limiting file uploads to that ip address?

Your configuration must be work but I recomment another solution.
You can use Upper Limit field of HFSC algorithm in appropriate queue.

I'm currently using priq i just want to limit the bandwidth going to a single ip so that it doesn't slow down the entire office when someone is uploading a video to our company server.
