      Hi

      I'm trying to limit an XboxOne to have 10MBit/s Down and 4Mbit/s up.
      Does this look correct ?

      Limiters:
      00001:   4.000 Mbit/s    0 ms burst 0 
      q131073  50 sl. 0 flows (1 buckets) sched 65537 weight 0 lmax 0 pri 0 droptail
       sched 65537 type FIFO flags 0x1 256 buckets 0 active
          mask:  0x00 0x00000000/0x0000 -> 0xffffffff/0x0000
      00002:  10.000 Mbit/s    0 ms burst 0 
      q131074  50 sl. 0 flows (1 buckets) sched 65538 weight 0 lmax 0 pri 0 droptail
       sched 65538 type FIFO flags 0x1 256 buckets 0 active
          mask:  0x00 0xffffffff/0x0000 -> 0x00000000/0x0000
      

      I've created an Alias containing the Xbox IP Address, then created 2 limiters SRC & DEST.

      In SRC I have the bandwidth as 10 Mbit/s with the MASK as Source Addresses
      In DEST I have the bandwidth as 4 Mbit/s with the MASK as Destination Addresses

      I've added a new rule to my LAN with the Source as the alias I created and set In/Out Pipes as SRC & DEST.

      Is that the right way round to limit it as I want ?

      Thanks

        I think I may have this the wrong was around.

        Re reading the docs:

        my SRC Rule has the MASK as SourceAddress so is the UPLOAD Limit
        my DESTRule has the MASK as DestinationAddress so is the Download Limit

        I think that is correct :)

          Limiters are a bit confusing. I'd just use queues.

          Please correct any obvious misinformation in my posts.

            Thanks for the reply.
            Do the limiters look correct?

            How would I set up queries ?

            Thanks

              Just a quick follow up on this.
              I've been doing some speed test on the upload & download with and without the limiters applied.

              With the limiters applied, the PC is restricted to the limits set.. so this does appear to be configured correctly.
