Change prio for specified traffic, not limiting bandwidth

Re: [Change prio for specified traffic](not limiting bandwidth)

Im searching for the same thing to priorize the traffic, not limit the bandwith (QoS) for it.
How it can be done?

PS.: I´m using Plus 22.05

kind regards,

@sysadminfromhell Yes. Use Traffic Shaper not a limiter.

Netgate has a shaper recipe doc.

@steveits Does ist reduce Bufferbloat then or do I still need to use the limiter then?
Sorry, on this topic I´m kind of a noob :D

@sysadminfromhell In general, a limiter limits bandwidth. A shaper prioritizes packets. Sometimes they are used together.

Netgate has a page on bufferbloat also, which uses both. I've not set that up myself, I've used the shaper with other methods, like PRIQ only prioritizes packets.
