Per policy and security policy

Hi ,

When you set a traffic shaper to be per policy, the FortiGate applies the traffic shaping rules defined to each security policy individually. For example, if a traffic shaper is set to per policy, with a maximum bandwidth of 1000 Kbps, any security policies that have that traffic shaper enabled get 1000 Kbps of bandwidth each. For example, if a traffic shaper is set to per policy with a maximum bandwidth of 1000 Kbps and applied to four security policies, each policy has the same maximum bandwidth of 1000 Kbps.

 

I really got confused about the security policy mentioned here . 

I can see  tarffic shaping policy 

The same rule is apply for traffic shaping policy also ?

 

Please help 

Thanks

After 5.4, traffic shaping config is shifted to shaping-policy, not regular policy. I don't know what happens when you configure both. That would be a question to TAC through a TT. We now configure only shaping-policy and they work as we expect.

I talked to one of the Fortinet TAC reg this. if both have TS Policy, TS in regular policy will take precedence over the other.
