Control inbound bandwidth

I have a WatchGuard XTM 510 connected to a NetGear GS108t switch that has VLANs defined on it.  The GS108t switch is going to the Outside port of a PacketShaper 1700 and then spits out to another GS108t switch that splits into two VLAN subnets.

I want to put some type of QoS policy on thWatchGuardrd that will allow me to control the amount of bandwidth that any one device can consume on an inbound request.  Whats the best way to go about this?

I can provide more details if needed.

Thanks
Victor

Thanks for both of your comments and imputs.  This helps me out a great deal and I may consider modifying the TCP window size in the future but I agree that tampering too much could introduce a lot of overhead.

I will watch this and see if I really need to pursue any action as the spikes that caused my concern have only happened a couple of times.
