You might have better luck asking on the openbsd misc list, there are a lot more people subscribed to that one. Did you look at the section labeled queuing in the pf man page? Assuming your outbound interface is em0, then: queue std on em0 bandwidth 25M should limit your outbound traffic to no more than 25M, as long as all outbound traffic is assigned to the std queue or one of its children.
Re: OpenBSD 5.5 set prio 3 and interface shaping
Thank You, I will see this afternoon, and I appreciate your reply. Can't believe it would be that simple and I missed it. I even have both pf books. Pre 4.6 and post 4.6 Again thank you very much and will read.

I have spent much time reading different ideas and by doing so learned much more while on this path. I have not posted on here except a time or two. I have ordered cd's (which I never received) That is a pity, did you report it to the CD seller? and donated money. Not a lot but it was what I could. But I'll be damned if I do again. I will keep mouth shut and read to learn here but will not be in support whether it be money or help for others in the future as my knowledge grows. If I knew a private way to send this post and to whom I would have Not blaming anyone. Didn't expect the elite brains to answer but no one else answered either? Not mad or upset and if someone wants to flame at me go ahead I will survive. One way or another I will be a contribution to the open source programs. I hope it would be in the technology and ideas one day but if not I'm sure the money would not hurt. Love the bsd operating system and will learn it if by only reading then so be it. Do not count me out in this industry. My apologies for not having the education of words and protocol, but like I said I have a drive and love this stuff. -- View this message in context: http://openbsd.7691.n7.nabble.com/OpenBSD-5-5-set-prio-3-and-interface-shaping-tp253916p254323.html Sent from the openbsd - packet filter mailing list archive at Nabble.com. The PF mailing list isn't one of the main OpenBSD lists and isn't as widely read. This fact may be masked by your choice of nabble.com's mailing listweb gateway - see http://www.openbsd.org/mail.html for the list of lists. Going back to your original question .. That being said we were wanting to use something to do nothing but .. limit em0 to 25Mbits and then we would set prio to whatever we need on .. the rest of the rules. Here is a possible config to simply limit the traffic: queue internet on em0 bandwidth 25Mb max 25Mb queue std parent internet bandwidth 25Mb default The new queues do not support set prio, you would need to handle priority traffic with additional queues to reserve bandwidth - (using min) - if high priority traffic is not using that bandwidth at a particular time, other traffic has a chance to use it instead (up to their max limit).
