good job :) -
I have just a few questions, and would be willing to donate a few hundered dollars to get a copy of this feature earlier than waiting for 1.3, but I need to make sure it will work in my environment. Attached is a small JPEG outlining the setup I want to use this feature for. I would love to be able to use it in bridge mode (between just two nics), if I can do two things (This is planned for the whole pipe):
1. Standard QoS - RDP, VoIP, and OpenVPN Traffic taking all priorities, and all others at a lower priority. I am confident this is included with this release. (I have VoIP Traffic running over the OpenVPN, but as I understand this thread, we will be able to shape this as well if we want to.) Right now, if I just shape the OpenVPN to take priority, then that will take care of VoIP.
2. Traffic Limiting - Being able to limit traffic (down to 3mbit instead of 10mbit) based on source IP or MAC Address. The picture attached, might explain this better, but in essence, I want to limit the tenants firewalls in our building. Total bandwith incoming and outgoing, and if that is not an option, at least give priority to source IPs.
If someone with better knowledge than I of what this new shapper is capable of could reply to this message and explain if these features are avaliable with this release, I will then be able to find out what my company is willing to send.
Thanks again!

Yes, you can do this.

Yes you can do this too. Seems like CBQ is a good candidate for your needs.

I have just discovered this thread and bounty, and would like to know if this would allow me to do the following and I would be very happy to send a payment of $100
I have 2 WAN, 1 of the WAN's is for use by DMZ VOIP only, and the other is for my LAN.
I am planning to get another WAN DSL.
I would really like to be able to have:
LAN Machine 1 <> WAN 1 with shaping for giving priority based on protocols etc
LAN Machine 2 <> WAN 2 with shaping for giving priority based on protocols etc
DMZ VOIP <> WAN3 with shaping for giving priority based on protocols etcWould also be nice to send certain traffic from LAN to WAN3 to be shaped etc.
Is this possible, sorry I a bit confused.
Thanks

That's the bounty requirement and it is fulfilled.
As for the other parts those are rfeatures that pfSense supports already.

Thx ermal for the great job.

All seems to be working pretty good in my environment with this new Traffic Shapper. The only problem I am having, is I would like to be able to see the queue's and there total usage so I can troubleshoot where the problems are. When I clock Traffic Shaper under the Firewall menu, I do see the shaper and the settings I have made. But when I goto Status, and choose Queues, and it returns back, "Traffic shaping is currently disabled." Let me know if I am doing something wrong…
Thanks!
NateP.S. I did use the EZ Traffic Shaper to create my rules.

Hmm its a forgotten merge on the update i gave just change this from the /usr/local/www/status_queues.php
63 if(!isset($config['shaper']['enable'])) {
to
if (!is_array($config['shaper']['queue'])) {The numbers are the line number.
Or if you wish go here to this link and save it in your pfSense router as /usr/local/www/status_queues.php.
Sorry about the disruption. It will be fixed on the next one.
