Description

This is a continuation from the topic discussed on the forum here:

https://forum.netgate.com/topic/168866/maximum-bandwidth-value-for-limiters

It appears that the current maximum allowable bandwidth limit for setting on traffic shaping limiters is about 4294 Mbit/s or 2^32 bits/s. I'm not sure if this is just a limit on the value that the input field supports or an actual hard limit of the limiter framework. With multi-gigabit connections becoming more common it would be great if allowable bandwidth setting on limiters could be updated to support bandwidth values of 10 Gbit/s and beyond.
