QOS seems dont work

Apollo13
Hi,

Im trying to configure QOS on our Sophos UTM box. i want to limit and shape the bandwidth with a user downloads somethings via web. below is what i did

On the traffic selector 

Source: (IP of the User)
Service: HTTP and HTTPS
Destination: ANY

Bandwidth Pools
Source interface (external wan)
bandwidth :200kbps
up: 210kbps
Traffic selector (checked)


When i tried to download i file it exceeds 210kbps. May i ask if i miss something or i wrongly configured it?

any help is appreciated?

Thanks

    Bill, I'm not convinced that 9.1 will do anything other than drop packets at the External interface instead of the Internal - or that it will do anything to improve the experience of the non-limited users.

    Can IPv6 do that?

    Cheers - Bob

    You are right, there is no difference in the way QoS works. The only difference is that like gsxfan, most people try to throttle external interface by instinct and that will work now and it will look like you are getting a constant stream from the external interface instead of the internal interface.
    Sorry, I haven't tried QoS with IPv6, so am not sure.

    @yualme, Layer 7 (application control) works even if you use proxies so that is not a problem any more.
