Download Throttling best practice

Goldy_01
Hi.
I'm not quite sure about working with the new option "Download Throttling".

Here is the situation:
1. I'm having many users, which use all sorts of Torrents.
2. The default preference of Torrents is unlimited uploads and downloads.
3. I don't mind Downloads, but I want to limit the upload to no more than 10Kb per user.

If it's like before, then guess it should be on the Wan Nic.
Now what would be the best practice to achieve this (I have already defined "Traffic Selector" for all Torrents).
Thanks

    Goldy, from your description, it sounds like you want a "classic" upload limit for bittorrent traffic on the WAN interface.  I think the picture you showed is for limiting downloads into your internal network.

    Cheers - Bob

    Agree with Bob about using classic Qos for uploads but if you want to use download throttle exclusively then....

    Wan download throttle limits incoming traffic
    LAN download throttle shapes outgoing traffic. 

    So you would want to apply a download throttle rule to your internal interface to throttle outgoing traffic. Pretty much opposite of the way it used to work before
