Limiter share bandwidth evenly + gaming bandwidth
-
Hi,
I am new to pfsense and i wanted to learn the traffic shaping.
I have a 50 mbps internet connection single ISP. I created a limiter and rules to control the traffic to browsing ports (HTTP, HTTPS etc.) I set it up to 30 mbps for bandwidth pool.
I altered the default LAN rule based on foxale08 instruction which I created a limiter and rules to 50 mbps, to maximize and share bandwidth evenly.
I didnt assign the remaining 20 mbps to limiter and left it as is, since gaming is not in browsing ports.
My expected result:
Browsing user1, user2, user3,…= share 30 mbps bandwidth
Gaming user1, user2, user3... = will share 20 mbps bandwidth
Total bandwidth used = 50 mbps. Using foxale08 config bandwidth will share evenly.Now I just wanted to know if this set up is possible or which rules should go on top?
Thank you in advance
PS I am not yet trying this config. Just wanted to make sure that im doing it correctly

I'm not quite sure I understand what you wish to accomplish. Do you want to guarantee 20Mbit to gaming and the remaining 30Mbit should always be available for browsing and other web traffic?

Thank you for the reply. Yes i am expecting that kind of behavior of the traffic. I am using this as hotspot to our place because nowadays, most people are playing online mobile games, so i wanted to prioritize gaming traffic. Is it possible?
Thank you,
