Bug : Traffic Shape -> PRIQ bug in pfsense 2.3 ?
-
I have tested "traffic shape" -> "PRIQ" in both pfsense 2.3 and pfsense 2.2.6 , and i found that :
In 2.3 :
PRIQ -> Priority can NOT set bigger than 7 , web GUI won't let you set it .
In 2.2.6 :
PRIQ -> Priority can set to 1 ~ 15 .
But according to document , PRIQ's Priority can be set between 1 ~ 15 !
So , fiinally , i choose 2.2.6 be my production version ; but i like 2.3 Web GUI Interface !
Is it a bug in 2.3 ? or what did i miss ?

If you need more than a few PRIQ priorities, then you should not use PRIQ…

Read the "Cons" section. (Starvation)You may have a legitimate bug, but the bigger issue is that you should not be using PRIQ.
Use CBQ, FAIRQ, or HFSC.
