Title: QOS with nDPI possible?
Post by: trikolon on February 11, 2017, 07:58:49 am

Hello,
I am thinking about to switch from ipfire but I would like to have some additional info before.
I read that l7 support had been removed, so the only way to use qos is via ports. I read that with nDPI traffic identification for qos, at least under Linux, is possible and I saw the ndpi package in opnsens' git repo. So is it possible to use it for let's say finding voip traffic and filter it to the right pipe?

Thanks and best regards
Ben

What I would like to find is not pipes but how can you just prioritize packets.  IE VOIP packet gets put in front of the other packets not just force it down a certain pipe.   Anyone know how to do that with out using pipes?

Pipes are required, but I believe you can use Queues to prioritize traffic within a specific pipe, then on the rules page, select the Queue instead of the pipe
