Throttle Bandwidth After Backup Has Started?

Ahh, ok. So my complete setup:

  • pfSense (FreeBSD-based) router/firewall
  • A couple of OSX boxes, a Linux-ish NAS, a Windows box.

It sounds like I’d end up with a few classification rules.

  • I’ll dig on on OSX to see if I can set QoS per app, I didn’t know that was possible on any OS.
  • For the NAS, I guess I could do outgoing HTTPs from the NAS to the WAN interface would be backup only (or a problem I should investigate!)
  • For the Windows box, I look look at the Policy Editor, thanks!
