Feedback:

On the section Floating Rules --> WAN address, the guide recommends the use "WAN address".
This is fine for IPv4/NAT-ed setup, but if you have a IPv6-enabled setup, the source address will use the client devices' public IPv6 address rather than the router's WAN IP.

In most setup (no NAT6), traffic shaping won't be applied to IPv6 traffic if the user followed this guide and choose "WAN address".

Could you please consider adding this caveat to the information section?
Currently there's already caveat about Multi WAN.

I changed things around a bit so there was more room to explain what the user should choose there for IPv6.
