General Discussion / Traffic shaping rules - data transferred
« on: October 11, 2019, 01:35:41 pm »
Hi all,
I've been using Tomato on my home router for nearly 15 years, relying heavily on its excellent QOS implementation. It generally works brilliantly, but none of the hardware supported by Tomato can route more than ~150Mbps when QOS is enabled. My ISP is now offering a lot more bandwidth than this, so it's finally time to move on to something x86 based.
OPNsense is one option I'm looking at, but I've gone through the documentation and there seems to be no way to create a traffic shaping rule based on the amount of data that has been transferred. I use this for many of my current rules in Tomato, for example to classify and shape web browsing and large web downloads differently. I'm hoping I've missed something and that there is in fact a way to do this in OPNsense?
