Monitoring Tools For Traffic Management; System Management; Change Passwords And Administrator Settings - NETGEAR SRX5308 Reference Manual

change the mix of traffic through the WAN ports by granting some services a higher priority
than others:
• You can accept the default priority defined by the service itself by not changing its QoS
setting.
• You can change the priority to a higher or lower value than its default setting to give the
service higher or lower priority than it otherwise would have.
For more information about QoS profiles, see
page 117.
Assigning Bandwidth Profiles
When you apply a QoS profile, the WAN bandwidth does not change. You change the WAN
bandwidth that is assigned to a service or application by applying a bandwidth profile. The
purpose of bandwidth profiles is to provide a method for allocating and limiting traffic, thus
allocating LAN users sufficient bandwidth while preventing them from consuming all the
bandwidth on your WAN links.
For more information about bandwidth profiles, see

Monitoring Tools for Traffic Management

The VPN firewall includes several tools that can be used to monitor the traffic conditions of
the firewall and content filtering engine and to monitor the users' access to the Internet and
the types of traffic that they are allowed to have. See
and Performance for a description of these tools.

•
