ermal, would the new traffic shaper allow you to distribute evenly bandwidth to the active workstations. example i have 2mb bandwidth. first  workstation 1 download a file so it gets the 2mb. after minute workstation 2 start download another file so workstation 1 gets 1mb and workstation 2 gets 1mb. is this possible with the new traffic shaper?

yes, just use CBQ discipline and it will setup you up for that.

ok thanks ermal! and load balance does not work :(

[eri--]

What do you mean by load balance does not work?!

[ccfiel]

ermal, I have tried to enable the load balance but only the WAN1 will get all the load but it works well in 1.2 official release. is this also a bug? or just missing something?

ermal, problem solve :) just change my ip /32 to /24

[ccfiel]

ermal,
      load balance is now working :) and sticky connection option appears :)  i am now testing your traffic shaper. My first problem is that the system can only see one interface. is this normal?

Well i think the vx driver is not on the list of hardware interfaces that support ALTQ, the traffic shaper.

I searched a little bit and i cannot come to a conclusion can you please verify if it supports it or not?

Instructions to enter it on the list of supported ALTQ interfaces:
Go to Diagnostics->Edit File
load /etc/inc/interfaces.inc
search for "is_altq_capable" function
add it to the list there - after ,"ste" add the line ,"vx"
Save
Go to the traffic shaper and it should show the interfaces
Make a simple configuration and reload the rules.
If it does work report back so it get added to the list.

Ermal

you right ermal vx is not supported :(

php: : New alert found: There were error(s) loading the rules: pfctl: vx1: driver does not support altq The line in question reads [ vx1]:
