Hi all

 

Can someone confirm me if what I did is correct?

 

I have a small office of 10 or so people. Some of them hog the internet
bandwith and I want to limit this people's bandwidth. This is what I did:

1.       I created an alias of network ip range of the suspected users.

2.       Then I created a traffic shaper pipe of 512Kbps

3.       Then I entered a traffic shaper rule and choose the interface WAN
and the intended alias.

 

Is this the correct way? Especially the WAN, I assume I should use WAN
interface in the traffic shaper rules page to limit internet bandwidth.
Please tell me if I am wrong.

 

Thank you

Rendra
