        Not unless squid is running on another server and not pfSense.Ā  :)

        The same limits are in effect no matter how you run squid on pfSense, at least on 1.2.x.

            No, no chance.

            I don't think shaping works that way on 2.0 even, but it has a better chance of it since the floating rules will match traffic a bit differently.

            Squid does have its own limiters though that should let you do some things.

              I have 2Ā  PF 1.2.3 installsĀ  each has it's own Wan connection and different IP's 1/4 mile apart The OPT1 Interface is configured as a static route between the 2 systems.
              Could I run a Proxy ( Squid ) on 1 PF box and have users on the other PF box use the proxy through the static route?

                You can shape squid on 2.0.
                You can use limiters or you can shape only one side of the squid connection(download) on the LAN side with queues.
