Title: Traffic shaper rule orders
Post by: mimbanis on January 10, 2018, 08:16:59 am

Hi,

I'm still fairly new to opnsense and have query about the traffic shaper. When traffic flows through the system and matches a rule does it end at that rule or also continue on until it has been compared to all the rules?
E.g. if I follow the example config but want to have the system allow 1 Mbit per user but no more than 40 Mbit for the whole system is it important which order they go in / will it match the 40 Mbit rule if that is first and ignore the 1 Mbit / IP rule?

Thanks in advance
Simon

No, it stops, that's why you can set ID numbers for rules to set the correct order.

Thanks, I assumed that was the case but was hoping there was a way to do both at once.
