Hello Wojciech
Sorry for the delay but in the past I was very busy. I use now the folowing:
$ipfwcmd pipe 1 config bw 80kByte/s
$ipfwcmd add pipe 1 ip from any to 192.168.10.0/24{100-254} via em1
$ipfwcmd queue 1 config pipe 1 weight 1 mask dst-ip 0xffffffff
$ipfwcmd add queue 1 all from any to 192.168.10.0/24{100-254} via em1
I expect that all hosts are targed with the ip address 192.168.10.0/24,
from .100 to .254. Is that correct? As far as I can see it works like
expected but I'm not 100% sure. I'm right?
Kind regards,
