NAME
fireqos.conf - FireQOS configuration file
DESCRIPTION
This file defines the traffic shaping that will be applied by fireqos(1). The default configuration file is /etc/fireqos/fireqos.conf. It can be overridden from the command line. A configuration consists of a number of input and output interface definitions (see fireqos-interface(5)). Each interface can define any number of (optionally nested) classes (see fireqos-class(5)) which shape the traffic which they match (see fireqos-match(5)).
SPEED UNITS
In FireQOS, speeds can be expressed in the following units:
#bps # bytes per second
#kbps; #Kbps
# kilobytes per second
#mbps; #Mbps
# megabytes per second
#gbps; #Gbps
# gigabytes per second
#bit # bits per second
#kbit; #Kbit; #
# kilobits per second (default)
#mbit; #Mbit
# megabits per second
#gbit; #Gbit
# gigabits per second
#% In a class, uses this percentage of the enclosing rate.
Note
The default, kbit is different to tc(8) which assumes bytes per second when no unit is specified.
EXAMPLE
# incoming traffic from my ADSL router
interface eth2 adsl-in input rate 10500kbit adsl remote pppoe-llc
class voip commit 100kbit pfifo
match udp ports 5060,10000:10100 # asterisk sip and rtp
match udp ports 16393:16402 # apple facetime
class realtime commit 10%
match tcp port 22,1195:1198,1753 # ssh, openvpn, pptp
match udp port 53 # dns
match proto GRE
match icmp
match tcp syn
match tcp ack
class clients commit 10%
match tcp port 20,21,25,80,143,443,465,873,993 # mail, web, ftp, etc
# unmatched traffic goes here ('default' is a special name)
class default max 90%
# I define torrents beneath the default class, so they slow
# down when the default class is willing to get bandwidth
class torrents max 90%
match port 51414 # my torrent client
# outgoing traffic to my ADSL router
interface eth2 adsl-out output rate 800kbit adsl remote pppoe-llc
class voip commit 100kbit pfifo
match udp ports 5060,10000:10100 # asterisk sip and rtp
match udp ports 16393:16402 # apple facetime
class realtime commit 10%
match tcp port 22,1195:1198,1753 # ssh, openvpn, pptp
match udp port 53 # dns
match proto GRE
match icmp
match tcp syn
match tcp ack

match tcp port 20,21,25,80,143,443,465,873,993 # mail, web, ftp, etc
# unmatched traffic goes here ('default' is a special name)

# I define torrents beneath the default class, so they slow
