I have encountered the following issue. I configured Traffic Shaping for several networks that pass through a single interface. I set a bandwidth limit at the IP level (Per IP Shaper) to 10 Mbps. After that, some users started experiencing problems accessing Outlook and certain websites. How can I configure Traffic Shaping so that this limit does not affect the availability of these services and sites?

Hello Liza1,

 

Kindly follow these articles for Traffic shoppers:
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/5.4.0/cookbook/107907/limiting-bandwidth-with-traffic-shaping

https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-How-to-apply-traffic-shaping-in-a-firewall-policy/ta-p/191943

Try to use the shared shapers and see if that fixes the issue or increase the bandwidth.
