Help needed: need pfsense to throttle youtube to specific IP

[Goobie]

Hello,

I'm running pfsense 2.0 and need help configuring a firewall rule to throttle youtube traffic to one specific IP (192.168.2.5) on my network.

I managed to figure out how to throttle all traffic to that IP, but would only like to apply that to traffic from Youtube.

Much appreciated
Thanks

I am not near a pfsense interface but fairly certain you can make a rule in the shaper based on an alias and that alias can contain a list of subnets. Google the YouTube subnet list and try work with that.

Will try that. Thanks

It seems squid would be more suitable to the task according to this link:

Don't forget that youtube is SSL/443. Squid won't like that.

I'd do the youtube subnet thing.
