For example, we have two links 4Mbits, ie the sum of 8Mbits, when we create a maximum bandwidth limit for a group of users 3Mbits this value applies to the sum of links, if the 8Mbits, or every link 4Mbits?

    That depends on how you apply it.

     

    If you use WAN Link Load Balancing and apply the Traffic Shaper to a policy Internal > virtual WAN it's 3Mbit/s of 8MBit/s

     

    If you have different policies (Internal > Wan1 and Internal > Wan2) and apply the same Traffic Shaper to both policies it depends on the Traffic Shaper.

    If it's set to "Per Policy" it's 3Mbit/s each (total of 6Mbit/s)

    If it's set to "All policies using this shaper" it's 3MBit/s of 8Mbit/s
