If I wish to prioritise traffic to a specific ip address or FQDN, what type of shape shaper should I use?
Any assistance is appreciated.
Best to give me specific steps.
Should I create a separate firewall rule for this specific priority website?
If I prioritize one website, do I have to create another "normal" rule for other websites?
Hello,
You can use per ip shaper to prioritise the traffic for specific ip/user .

Hello @BusinessUser ,
Please check this document on Traffic Shaping. This document on traffic shaping is to prioritize higher priority traffic over lower priority traffic during periods of traffic congestion.
