<listitem>

<para>Name of <emphasis>interface</emphasis>. Each interface may be

|
listed only once in this file. You may NOT specify the name of an

<para>You may NOT specify wildcards here, e.g. if you have multiple

ppp interfaces, you need to put them all in here!</para>

<para>If the device doesn't exist, a warning message will be issued

during "shorewall [re]start" and "shorewall refresh" and traffic

|
<para>Shorewall assigns a sequential <firstterm>interface
|
|
number</firstterm> to each interface (the first entry in the file is
|
|
interface 1, the second is interface 2 and so on) Beginning with
|
|
Shorewall-perl 4.1.6, you can explicitly specify the interface
|
|
number by prefixing the interface name with the number and a colon
|
|
(":"). Example: 1:eth0.</para>

<listitem>

<para>The incoming <emphasis>bandwidth</emphasis> of that interface.
|
|
Please note that you are not able to do traffic shaping on incoming
|
|
traffic, as the traffic is already received before you could do so.
|
|
But this allows you to define the maximum traffic allowed for this
|
|
interface in total, if the rate is exceeded, the packets are
|
|
dropped. You want this mainly if you have a DSL or Cable connection
|
|
to avoid queuing at your providers side.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you don't want any traffic to be dropped, set this to a
|
|
value to zero in which case Shorewall will not create an ingress
|
|
qdisc.Must be set to zero if the REDIRECTED INTERFACES column is
|
|
non-empty.</para>

This is the maximum speed your connection can handle. It is also the

speed you can refer as "full" if you define the tc classes in <ulink

url="shorewall-tcclasses.html">shorewall-tcclasses</ulink>(5).
|

Outgoing traffic above this rate will be dropped.</para>

<para>Added in Shorewall-perl 4.1.6. May only be specified if the

interface in the INTERFACE column is an Intermediate Frame Block

(IFB) device. Causes packets that enter each listed interface to be

|
passed through the egress filters defined for this device, thus
|

providing a form of incoming traffic shaping. When this column is

non-empty, the <emphasis role="bold">classify</emphasis> option is

assumed.</para>
