I am new to Proxmox, running 7.2 with OVS bridges and Ubuntu 20.04 guests using the VirtIO network device. When I configure a guest to have its network rate limited to 4 MB/s in the UI, the limit only appears to apply to inbound traffic and not outbound traffic. Running a speedtest on a gigabit link shows ~31mb/s download as expected, but shows 940+ mb/s uploaded. Is there another setting I'm missing to configure the outbound traffic limit? Thanks!
