According to the pf manuals it should process only outgoing packets.
And I believe it's the case as the incoming rate doesn't depends on queieing
state.
Just did an experiment adding only this 2 lines:
===
altq on $ext priq bandwidth 350Kb queue {q}
queue q priority 1 priq(default)
===
and no queue statements in the filtering rules.
If I understand the logick of the pf right, it means to create an outbound
queue on $ext with bandwith 350Kb and put all outgoing traffic into it (due to
the (default) statement).
This results in the outgoing transfer speed of appox. 18KB/s, and incoming is
unaffected and is approx. 117KB/s.
Increasing bandwith in the altq rule to 700Kb, results in the upload speed of
approx. 30-34 KB/s.
Is it a good idea to check the behavior of the ruleset with OpenBSD?
