The machine in question is a gateway between a 100M LAN and a 1Mbit
upstream line. Obviously I can't control stuff coming down the outside
line, but I can control my outgoing bandwidth, so thats what I'm trying to
do. The outside NIC is an fxp0, inside is rl0. I was assuming the way I
did it, it would catch anything going between the two interfaces with the
src/dst IP I specified?
Is this the info you wanted or am I barking up the wrong tree?
