- I know OPNSense removed this from the UI.
- I know it was announced.
- I know it is still supported if you export config, edit config, re-import config.
- I do not really understand why it was removed?
- OPNSense is missing on a very important use case: Transparent Shaper.
- A Transparent Shaper is possible ONLY using Interfaces: Virtual IPs: Settings > Mode=Other.
More details why:
- Queuing is never efficient; only pipes are.
- Queuing is never efficient, from any vendor, software or hardware, or both (appliance); only pipes are.
- A shaper is best when transparent.
- A Shaper is best when standalone.
- Any additional service is pure noise.
This is more of a feature request: Please bring back Virtual IP Mode = Other to the UI. Adding "Other" interfaces does not mean I have to restart the shaper.
