-====== Limit bandwidth for a host behind NAT in pfsense ======
-I have a ssh VM which bandwidth to the internet I want to limit to 10 Mbit/s outgoing, 50 Mbit/s incoming.
-===== Requirements =====
-  * pfsense 2.3.X
-----
-===== Setup the limiters =====
-  * Go to ''Firewall -> Traffic Shaper -> Limiters'' and create a new limiter with the following settings:
-    * Name: ''sshout''
-    * Bandwidth: ''10 Mbit/s''
-    * Schedule: ''none''
-    * Mask: ''none''
-  * With Mask set to none, we limit the bandwisth globally, if you want it per host, select ''Source addresses''
-  * Create a second limiter named ''sshin'' with a bandwidth of ''50 Mbit/s''
-===== Setup the firewall rule =====
-  * Go to ''Firewall -> Rules''
-  * Create a new ''Floating'' rule with the following settings:
-    * Action: ''Match''
-    * Interface: ''LAN'' or whatever interface your host is connected to
-    * Direction: ''out''
-    * Address Family: ''IPv4''
-      * I was not able to create a combined IPv4+v6 rule
-    * Protocol: ''any''
-    * Source: ''any''
-    * Destination: ''Single host or alias'' with IP ''<your host IP>''
-  * Open the advanced options and modify:
-    * Gateway: ''WAN''
-      * I had to manually select the gateway but I have multi-WAN so that might be the reason.
-    * In / Out pipe: ''sshin'' and ''sshout''
