Share and Limit WAN Download in multi LAN environment

[dineshsharma]

I want to limit my WAN download upto 800 Kbps.
Problem is that I have multiple LAN (1 LAN and other DMZ).

Using traffic shaping HFSC scheduler I am able to limit traffic for a given LAN interface.
But the queues work independently on both interfaces.

But how can I have a common queue with upper limit for both LAN interfaces.

You can't.

Possible workarounds:

• Bridge all LANs and apply the shaper to the bridge interface (you can still control traffic between interfaces, although they will technically be within the same subnet)
• Use VLANs connected to the same physical interface, then apply the shaper to the physical interface
• Use another pfSense box in transparent bridge mode, in front of the other one, to handle the shaping

Use limiters, set a pair of limiters up (one for upload, one for download) with the speed you want for both LANs
Then use those limiters in all traffic for both LANs.
