Traffic Shaping supports overlap between rules, where more than one rule can match for a specific message flow. If more
than one rule matches, the rule with the highest priority will be used.

Name. Create a name for the rule that is meaningful to
you.

Protocol. The protocol used by the messages: TCP,
UDP, or ICMP.

Select ―Any‖ if your rule does not control a

specific type of message that uses a specific protocol.

Priority. The priority of the message flow is entered here-
-15 receives the highest priority (most urgent) and 0
receives the lowest priority (least urgent).

Enable. Specifies whether the entry will be active or
inactive.

Example: You sometimes work from home, and you share bandwidth with your children. You can set a rule to prioritize your computer and a rule
to reduce priority for their computer. To prioritize your computer, you might use the following settings:

Name: My Computer

Protocol:

Any (Your computer will use all three protocols; there‘s no reason to restrict this rule to just one protocol)

Priority: 15

To lower the priority of your children‘s computer, you might use these settings:

Name:

Kids‘ Computer

Protocol: Any

Priority: 2
