      Sorry but I'm not very good at speaking English.

      I spent some time reading articles in this board just a few moments ago.
      But I still don't understand something.

      First: Why are there two targets in any traffic rule? ???

      See this:
      http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,412.0.html
      I had read this topic but it doesn't help much.
      Besides, I don't think that the two targets have anything to do with something like ACK flag and ToS. :)
      Am I wrong ???

      Second: What is the exact meaning of "Bandwidth"?

      See this:
      http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,3050.0.html
      In this topic dusan said that "Bandwidth" is just a shortcut for Linkshare curve's m2.
      But many queues generated by EZ Shapre wizard which has 1% bandwidth could still exceeded that.
      Why ???

      And third: How to set link share?

      I had read this:
      http://wiki.pfsense.com/wikka.php?wakka=HFSCBandwidthShapingNotes
      But it doesn't state very clearly, if I have two computers, say C1 and C2.
      I create two queues for them (let's make things easy, consider only about uploading)
      q1 is the uploading queue for C1, and q2 for C2.
      What I want is, when two of the computers are using networks, they got 50-50.
      But when one of them is ideal, and the other is using, he got 100%.

      I set q1:
      Upper limit m2=100%
      Real time m2=50%
      Link share m2=100%

      same as q2

      Is that right ???

      Or I have to set link share to 50% because 50 + 50 = 100 ???

      Thank you for reading this, oh ya I really like pfSense, haha~ ;D
