  • I believe IPSEC site-to-site creates a firewall rule. In the firewall rule, At the bottom of the firewall rule's details there is a Traffic Shaping field. You can create or use a Guarantee rule-based policy to reserve bandwidth for IPSEC. In the Traffic Shaping policy, you'd want it to be Rule-based, higher priority (lower number), Guarantee (and guarantee a reasonable amount of bandwidth), and Shared usage type. I think... I'm just starting to learn traffic shaping.
