| What release? I know the following will work in -CURRENT (Courtesy of

| 
| my_ip_blocks="62.8.64.0/19, 196.200.32.0/20"
| ipfw pipe 1 config bw 1024Kbit/s
| ipfw add pipe 1 tcp from me to not $my_ip_blocks 25


Hi Joe,

Yes, this really helped. After I removed the "{}" surrounding the
declaration of $my_ip_blocks, the pipe now behaves as expected.

I am running IPFW2 (as I mentioned in the subject) on FreeBSD 6.2-PRE.

I am wondering if this would be possible on IPFW2 built in FreeBSD 4.11
