Description

There is an issue appeared after recent pfsense updates (which ?)
Limiters applied to shape traffic on OpenVPN (configured as server) interface apply only for client uploads.
Previously the limiters were properly applied to both download and upload traffic (in/out on the interface)

The only way to apply the download limiter is now on WAN interface.
However, you cannot limit specific OpenVPN clients by their IP from there !
The only solution I found and that it still works is to Tag the rule on OpenVPN interface and shape it on the floating tab using "Match" and the tagged string

Is this by design or it is a bug in current pfsense release ?
