[SOLVED] Traffic shaper, prioritize ACK packets

[Maarten]

Hi,

I've setup the traffic shaper, and that's working fine. With pfSense I was able to prioritize ACK packets. Is this possible in OPNsense as swell, or is there another mechanism that I'm not aware of?

(I've searched the board an googled for it, but could not find anything, the manual about traffic shaping in OPNsense is pretty limited)

Thanks.

Hi Maarten,

We're using ipfw+dummynet to do the traffic shaping, it should be possible to match tcp ack's and assign those packets to a queue.
Can you add an issue, with some details if possible, on GitHub for this feature request?

Maybe we can try to add this feature in the upcoming 16.1 release.
