I'm not quite sure on how to do this. This is what I use to limit the bandwidth: # /sbin/ipfw add 10000 pipe 1 ip from any to any out # /sbin/ipfw pipe 1 config bw 56Kbit/s Is that right? If I add "xmit de1" to the first line, it gives me the error: ipfw: error: can't check xmit interface of incoming packets And then prints out the usage of ipfw. Please help. --bhishan > * Bhishan Hemrajani <bhishan@cytosine.dhs.org> [000326 17:12] wrote: > > Is there any way to only limit outgoing bandwidth? > > > > (ie: have fast download speeds, but slow upload speeds) > > > > I use DUMMYNET, but, it limits the whole connection > > instead of just upload. > > It shouldn't if you use ipfw's keywords recv/xmit to specify the > direction of the traffic. > > -Alfred > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
