Advanced traffic shaping configuration

After the initial traffic shaping configuration using the traffic shaper wizard, you may find that the rules the wizard do not entirely fit your needs. This may be as a result of issues you knew about when you were using the wizard (for example, you are using a game not on the list of games) or there may be other issues, such as a service or application that needs to be limited. This should not be a major problem; now that the basic rules have been created, you can edit or copy those rules and create custom rules that suit your needs. There are two broad categories of changes you might want to make: changes to queues and changes to traffic shaping rules.
