QoS exclusion

From what I've read, QoS allocates available bandwidth among devices in the network identified by IP address or Host name. If I have 30 devices in the network, is there a way to apply QoS on 28 devices and exclude 2 devices from QoS? These 2 devices could be servers that need to have full Internet access all the time.

Depending on your network setup, probably not.
It would be easier to set the servers as priority traffic using appropriate rules.

Thank you, Lantis. Where do I set those rules?

i mean we have this

but it isn't specific to what you want to do. but no guides will be.
If you can have a go and come up with something then we can offer advice on why it does/doesn't work.
