Hello Kinmun,

 

Refer to this document. At step 5, select the Apple services like iCloud, etc and add them to the list. This would traffic shape those applications.

you need to apply "Application traffic shaping" enables to control traffic per application level. choose Icloud app and limit bandwidth on your WAN internet pipe.

 

3 types of traffic shaping in firewall.

[ul]
  • Policy shaping enables you to define the maximum bandwidth and the guaranteed bandwidth set for a security policy
  • Per-IP shaping enables you to define traffic control on a more granular level.
  • Application traffic shaping enables to control traffic per application level.[/ul]
