      Hi
      I am using two ISP A&B for instance. Both are managed with load balancing and fail-over gateway and working fine, ISP A have 8 Mbps & ISP B have 40 Mbps. ISPA=WAN & ISPB OPT1 , and tier 1:1 for load balance on "high latency or packet loss" and tier 1:1 for fail over on "member down". and need to distribute it over 150 users. so how we achieve a proper bandwidth over every user. I tried to use Traffic shaper and Limiters with alias but din't worked out please help me to manage.

          If you WAN bandwidths are that different the first thing you should do is weight the gateways in the load-balance group so you get 5:1 connections using the ISP B gateway.

          Then a great way to set equal bandwidth per user is to use dynamic limiters based on a /32 mask.
          Unfortunately the screenshots have been lost from here:

          The description is still good though.
