Limiting bandwidth on a VLAN does not work

Hi,

the XG operates with KB not kb, so you need to divide you required value by 8 when filling in the field.

Tks, did not pay attention.

Even though, i can download at more than 16Mbps(2000KB/s)

And that does not explain why all the traffic goes through the default firewall rules (Port1) and not the first.

Hi,

please post your firewall rules and in which order they are?

Here are an overview of the firewall rules. I am using a Guest VLAN (Port1.2) but the traffic goes though rule ID 2.

I tested the traffic shaping policy on rule ID 2 and it works. So no issue with the policy settings.

Tks!

I found the issue ( or should I call it a bug? )...

In my firewall rule, I was using as a source : LAN, Port1.2

I've replaced the Port1.2 by it associated network (10.0.0.0/24) and it works.

So why is Port1.2(VLAN)  being seen as Port1(LAN)? Physically they are the same, but they are two distinct networks.

Because it is a limitation of the current XG. You could even give it a network name and that would work.

I haven't seen any release plans for a fix or improvement. There are a number of similar issues with networking and being able to select objects.

They should at least remove the VLAN port selection for now until they fix this. I am surely not the only one using VLANs and policies.

Tks for the info. I'll keep that in mind. 

No, we all tried it and failed. I haven't tried again since early in v17.0.
