how to only set a limit on low priority traffic?

dear all.

Another question on QoS. I want to only limit communication on certain ports between certain machines.

So, I've created a rule, accepting this kind of traffic low priority. And now (i guess) I have to limit low priority traffic. I've read the post of Gert Hansen about QoS in ASL 5, and he talks about a 'hidden' feature. (:::)

What to do if you only want to limit low priority traffic? Would something like this work: 0:0:0:512 ?

Thanks very much for your feedback.

No, that would not work in the wanted way. You could use something like 1000:1000:900:500 or 1000:1000:900:300. That would limit your "Allow Low" more than the standard does.
I assume that your total bandwidht is 1000 (1Mbit). Change the first value to your actual bandwidth and change the other values proportionally to my examples.

this means that your LOW priority queue get only 300kb/second max.

is that what you want?

actually, yes, it is.

well... i only want to limit ONE kind of traffic this much. (traffic between two known machines on a certain port (1500)). The only way I can think of, is to mark only that traffic as allowed (low priority) and then limit all low priority this much.

or am I missing a feature..?
