      For traffic shaping I've been using Floating Tab (with mostly the default settings) exclusively.

      It worked for me for about two years. But starting from a snapshot that was released some time in the last few months, it has accidentally stopped working.

      For example, I have an NTP server that I've configured to queue into qGames (which is reserved exclusively for NTP traffics). But only downloaded NTP packets are queued qGames (on LAN interface). The uploaded packets do not get to the expected WAN's and OPTx's qGames.

      I'm using Mon Mar 21 16:31:05 EDT 2011 snapshot and the problem remains.

        Are you using the new Queue Action instead of the PASS Action within your rules?

          No I'm not. I use the Pass action everywhere.

          Should I change it to Queue action in the Floating tab? (May be dumb question but I really don't know what is the Queue action supposed to do.)

          Thanks,

            Be sure to set Direction to Any as well.  Ermal has made several changes to the Traffic Shaper within the last couple of months.

            The following links should explain some of his most recent commits.

              I can confirm that using the Queue action for rules on the floating tab seems to be working correctly.

                @dusan,

                it should not matter though. Previous rules should work as is without any changes!
                You are sure that they are not overriden by any other rule?

                  @Ermal:  Do quickmatch floating rules take priority over interface rules?

                    But setting the direction from Out to Any should matter with the changes you've made.

                      @onhel,tacfit: I'll try to change the action from Pass to Queue and will report back. Thanks.

                      But I'm afraid I can't change the direction from Out to Any since it would generate an In rule (rather than an In rule plus an Out rule, an Any rule, or anything meaningful) that would lead to routing problem in my pfsense.

                      @ermal: I'm sure the NTP rule is not overriden. Bellow is my rule list. The NTP rule is @65. The only other NTP related rules are @94 and @95.

                        I am not sure what is em1 interface but if that is wan then it will override the pass out rule.

                        Match/Queue action rules are not firewall rules they are just used for selecting the queue.
                        After a firewall rule with action pass matches and it has not a queue selected the queue from the previoused match/queue action rule will be used.
                        So a Queue action rule does not open any firewall ports or does not allow any traffic.

                          em1 is LAN. But even if it was WAN, @94 and @95 couldn't override @65 as they are Pass In rules.

                          I changed action from Pass (out) to Queue for many rules in the Floating tab (including @43 and @44 which are the default pass out rules for TCP and UDP). And traffics are still passed out normally.

                            By changing only the action from Pass to Queue, nothing new happens. NTP packets outgoing OPTx are not queued in qGames.

                            I've then changed the direction from Out to Any (by the Web UI), following onhel's advice. pftop now shows that the actual direction has changed from Out to In, and the packet and byte counters on qGames on OPTx has started increment, indicating that NTP traffic are now queued correctly.

                            However, the same approach does not seem to help in case of NAT-T IPsec. My IPsec device is located in the LAN and must pass through pfsense (port 500 and 4500 UDP) to initiate a tunnel or respond to tunneling request from a remote IPsec device on the Internet. For the purpose of testing, I've reserved qVoIP for IPsec exclusively. No matter what I do, there is always one direction that gets wrong, i.e. either downloaded or uploaded packets do not appear in the expected queue.

                            So, I wonder what is the best approach to my simple needs – a multi-WAN router and traffic shaper, no firewalling, just pass everything through, in any directions.

                              to add to this thread, i just noticed that most of my floating tab rules also stopped working and i see traffic in the default queue

                                That could be due to recent changes in the shaper, that dropped all download queues. Check your queues on the download side.

                                  I am not sure why pftop reports it as in although you have configured it as all directions.
                                  You have to keep in mind that the same previous rules are used the match/queue action just helps have define firewall rules and shaping rules differently while before you had to do on the same rule.
                                  The traffic outgoing pfSense is always allowed since there are default rules for it which policy route the traffic accordingly.

                                  With the new approach if you put a Queue/Match action rule on the floating tab for those ports without any direction selected that should do.

                                  Though really nothing should change for existing installs.
                                  Do you have any previous versions of rules.debug and a new one so i can compare or even send me privately your config to verify that actually there is not something wrong in pfSense per se?!

                                    I've found more pftop issues that could be related to the new Queue (match) action. In View 6, for all Queue(match) rules, the action is displayed as "11" instead of "match" or "queue". In View 6, the packet counters and byte counters are zeros for some Queue (match) action rules although View 8 (Queue View) shows that the corresponding rules do apply.

                                    You have to keep in mind that the same previous rules are used the match/queue action just helps have define firewall rules and shaping rules differently while before you had to do on the same rule.

                                    You're right. I've tried to change all Pass Out rules to Queue Any and pfsense stopped passing traffics through. Strange is, that traffic blocking did not occur immediately. For some traffics, it take hours to be effective. For others, it couldn't take effect without manual intervention (see below).

                                    The traffic outgoing pfSense is always allowed since there are default rules for it which policy route the traffic accordingly.

                                    The default rules only apply to traffic from the pfSense host itself, right?

                                    With the new approach if you put a Queue/Match action rule on the floating tab for those ports without any direction selected that should do.

                                    Here are how I follow your advice:

                                    1. I added a "default" Pass Out rule that Passes everything Out every interface (in the Floating tab).

                                    2. Then I changed all other rules (which were Pass Out) in the Floating tab to Queue Any. (The rules are then listed as Match without direction in status.php rule list.)

                                    3. I then made sure every rule in LAN/WAN/OPTx tabs are without queues. (The rules are then listed as Pass In in rule list.)

                                    4. Then I stopped all IPsec devices, local and remote. (This step is necessary. Without it, new rules do not take effect.)

                                    5. Finally I restarted pfsense completely. (This is again necessary. Just an Apply new rules or Reset states do not suffice.)

                                    6. I waited for a few minutes then started IPsec devices.

                                    Given that, pftop View 8 now shows that IPsec traffics go in the correct queues (but View 6 doesn't confirm that). It is really pain to stop-restart-start on every change to see its effect. But thank you anyway.

                                    Though really nothing should change for existing installs.
                                    Do you have any previous versions of rules.debug and a new one so i can compare or even send me privately your config to verify that actually there is not something wrong in pfSense per se?!

                                    In order to test IPsec initiator / responder roles separately, I added Block/Reject rules (for IPsec in one direction), an action that I've never did before. Unfortunately, pfsense encountered a kernel panic.

                                    I'm now back to Feb 14 snapshot.

                                    I don't think I have to continue reporting on the shaping / routing topics until pftop issues and kernel panics are resolved.

                                      Well pftop i will see if can be fixed to at least show action match and not action 11.
                                      But really the match action rules will not have counters updated for the traffic they match.
                                      This is a deficiency on 2.0 i might see what are the impacts of having that corrected are.

                                      About the panic a minidump report would have been nice. AFAIK there are no more issues related to panics and belived me Feb 14 is quite a dangerous snapshot for some uses :)

                                        Then I must return to old pass out rules. When I make changes I would like to see the effects and pftop is the only tool for it. I can't live without it.

                                        Sorry. The panic occurs during a very busy work time. I went back to whatever snapshot I have in hand as quick as possible so that users couldn't even notice it :P .

                                        I now update to the latest snapshot. Many thanks.
