Nextcloud in DMZ - Limit for remote users, none for LAN
-
We have a nextcloud server in the DMZ (behind a NAT-Portforwarding) and want to limit external users to not fully use up the 16 MBit/s DSL line when they download hosted files.
Internal users in LAN should have full speed, sure.We tried apache-bandwidth-control with nearly no success.
Now we consider solving this on pfsense.
QoS is already used for VOIP on LAN and WAN, I assume we could solve this by setting/using (a) limiter(s)?
As I haven't used these before I am searching for a good example or howto, got a bit lost browsing the many forum pages … maybe someone has a good pointer?
EDIT (SOLVED?):
I think I got it.
Defined 2 Limiter-Queues along https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=114569.msg637004#msg637004
Then assigned them to the NAT-Rule on the WAN-interface.First tests look good.
Is my solution correct? -

It's correct if it solves the problem without introducing any new problems. Have a read of this as well:
