The best way to do this is to create an alias in Firewall -> Aliases called VoIP and then add all of the ip adresses or netblocks that belong. Then during the wizard process tell it to use the VoiP alias and this will guarantee that the traffic should hit the right queues.

Hi everyone. I'm new to pfSense (coming from m0n0wall), but I've been searching through the forums/docs and have yet to find an issue like this. I've got a fresh install of 1.0.1 RELEASE (hard drive install) and I'm trying to do simple traffic shaping for VoIP to give all priority to VoIP when it needs it. I followed the traffic shaping wizard and entered in the IP of my Asterisk box on the VoIP section. I also set it to send all other traffic to the P2P up/down queues. After completing the wizard, I see the rules there showing traffic to/from my Asterisk box set to go to qVOIPDown and qVOIPUp properly. When looking at the status of the queues while a VoIP call is in progress, I see the qVOIPDown queue get ~80kbps of activity like it should, however the qVOIPUp queue is empty. During that time though, the qwanacks queue is up ~80kbps more than before the call started, so it must be going to that queue instead (and it drops back down when the call concludes). The weird part is that other outgoing traffic from the Asterisk box such as an FTP upload gets sent to the qVOIPUp queue properly, however the upstream of a VoIP call does not. Below is a screenshot of my shaping rules. I did try experimenting with some things, but I reverted back to a clean wizard generated setup, reset states, tried again, and the same thing continues to happen. http://tntpowerhost.com/mixx941/pfSense-shaper1.jpg Note that the duplicate set of rules for the Catch-All was done by the wizard, and that was another thing I was going to ask about since they seem to be the same and I'm not sure why there are two sets of in/out there. I'm also not sure how any traffic is getting into the qwanacks queue anyway since there is no rule for it. So in short: 192.168.1.50 is my Asterisk box. The shaper is setup to send traffic to and from 192.168.1.50 to the qVOIPDown and qVOIPUp queues respectively, however when a VoIP call is in progress, the outgoing traffic from that call is sent into qwanacks instead of qVOIPUp for some reason. I hope I explained it well. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -Mark -- Internet Radio: Party107 (Trance/Electronic) - http://www.party107.com Rock 101.9 The Edge (Rock) - http://www.rock1019.net IRC: MIXXnet IRC Network - irc.mixxnet.net (Nick: MIXX941) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
