      Hi Folks,

      I'm looking to setup a simple rule which limits every IP on the LAN with 3Mb upload/download speed.

      Is this the best practice for it?

      If anyone has other suggestions please let me know.

        Yes, limiters is what you want if oyu want to put a maximum limit per user.

        This is the best writeup I have seen about limiters:

          So after I did this I noticed a bunch of errors in the logs like:

          statepfsync_undefer_state: unable to find deferred

          Turns out this is a known bug with limiters and HA: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=108815.0

          Does anyone know of a similar guide for the same functionality without using limiters?
