Title: Firewall rules: Pipes and queues can not be combined false positive error
Post by: gac on July 17, 2026, 01:11:42 AM
I have some rules where I've set up the traffic shaper on the rule; one queue for outbound, one queue for reverse. Both are queues. Saving rules now shows an error saying that "Pipes and queues can not be combined".

I cannot reproduce this.

What are the names of your queues and pipes?

Maybe they overlap.  I could also add a pipe with the same description twice and I guess that goes for everything in shaper.

I have....

Pipes: Upload, Download
Queues: Upload-Queue, Download-Queue, LowPrio-In-Queue, LowPrio-Out-Queue, HighPrioUp-Queue
Rules: Upload-Rule, Download-Rule

So I don't see anything that would overlap, and as you say these are descriptions rather than names so I assumed that behind the scenes they were referred to by some abstracted UUID in the config since they're not guaranteed to be unique.

Yeah, just a hunch.  Mind sharing this with me? Email or PM is also ok:

# pluginctl -g OPNsense.TrafficShaper

I threw it on Pastebin, probably easier to read https://pastebin.com/DjGTf8rv
