Limiting bandwidth

Hello,

I'm using PF together with ALTQ, but my need of limiting bandwidth has
changed. I need to be able to limit the bandwidth from/to a certain IP
range, but only once a specific amount of data has been transferred from/to
that IP range. At midnight I want the counter to be reset, and everything
should start over.

For example, I want to allow, let's say 10 GiB from e.g 192.168.0.1/24, and
once the 10GiB limit has been reached, I want to limit the bandwidth to xx
kbits/s until midnight.

Any ideas how to accomplish this, can it be done using PF and ALTQ?

Regards
Erik Danielsson
