<![CDATA[Traffic shaping - one WAN, two LANs]]>Hi,
i'm totally in  pfsense and don't know how to setup the traffic shaping for my network.

My setup is a WAN connection with 6Mbit/s and two LANs (guest+private).
I want to setup the traffic shaper, my private LAN should always have the higher priority and should be able to use 90% of the WAN bandwidth every time.
The guest-LAN should also be able to use 90% of the WAN bandwidth, but only when my private LAN is not using the WAN bandwidth.
What kind of shaping thing is that?
Is it PRIQ or CBQ?
How should I start doing this?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Jonas

pfSense + a managed switch.

How will this work?

You can search for other posts on the topic. I have no actual experience in this area.

I would assume that you would shape the traffic by IP/port on a single interface within pfSense, then the managed switch would split it off into the seperate LANs.

You could set one LAN interface with a bandwidth limit of 50% so that the other LAN will always have 50% available.

You can accomplish your goal of fair sharing (meaning both interfaces can fully utilize all unused bandwidth) but you need to use two instances of pfSense or pfSense + a managed switch.
