Bug #1575
closedLimiters are bypassed by local applications injecting rules
100%
Description
Taking a look at http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,37399.0.html
it would be good to teach the match action about limiters as well to avoid such kind of issues.

will this be fixed or is it fixed in 2.1?

Normally this can be overcommed with match rules on floating tab.
It is present there on 2.1 and i am pushing the fix to allow the rule for limiters as well.
Just create a Match rule under floating rules with limiters you want and it would be applied to these rules.

Can you provide any analysis of how you do your checking?
Also provide a
ipfw pipe show ipfw queue show pfctl -vvsr pfctl -vvsn pfctl -a miniupnpd -vvsn pfctl -a miniupnpd -vvsr

the easy way to test this is, enable upnp, create limiters, create match rules under floating tab with limiters applied then u first do a speed test and it will be limited fine, now that same speed limit should apply but start a torrent download using utorrent or any such software and make it open a random port using upnp and then notice the download and upload speed exceed the limiter value and this way u know it never works once any application tries to open a port using upnp, the limiter almost becomes dead, it does work fine for other ports not opened by upnp

In that forum post i do not see any limiters configured on the ruleset posted.
So please provide the information if you want this to be pursued.

Can you try by removing the quick option on the match rules, if you have selected it?
Updated by Bipin Chandra over 11 years ago
yes its ticked, trying without that now but if we untick then i guess in the past there was a problem of traffic for those clients not going to proper queues and i guess u only mentioned in the forum a very long time back that it needs to be ticked but for now i didnt assign any queues to those rules so no issues
