      Hi guys,

      I have 7 LAN interfaces and use PRIQ to shape traffic through the WAN links. The wizard enabled a default queue on ALL interfaces, so seeing how I only want Internet traffic queued, should I disable the Default Queue on the LAN interfaces?

      Thanks for the advise,
      Bill

        1st. I'm not sure if you can not have a default queue. The end result will either base the same as having a default queue or the data is going to get dropped.

        2nd. Even if you can do that, don't use the traffic shaping system like a firewall rule. Just make rules to block traffic you don't want.
