Since you are masking on source address it will create separate pipes for each IP address, each getting the limit, not sharing the limit. If that's what you're after, cool.

Regarding pictures/screen captures, I only do them on the forum for expediency. If I was doing a writeup like that I'd follow this:

Yeah, what's up with this? You do realize that the vast majority of us aren't ESF staff here, right? That we're just normal users who try to help others for free out of our spare time?

The entire subject matter of this thread is pretty pedestrian for someone of your credentials. No need to struggle for a HUGE amount of time to set up a simple limiter.

Actually, the comment by KOM and my reply has nothing to do with the LIMITER but with SQUID…

Is there a particular reason you didn't address my last comment? You're not going to make many friends here if that's the way you treat people who try to help you, and slamming ESF/pfSense because I couldn't come up with a fix for your squid problem is just unfair and unnecessary.

Please see my reply on this matter in topic: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=97108.0 …

The topic in hand has nothing to do with squid
