III-2-3 Overload Management

Load Balance can help to distribute the traffic for all of the access points (e.g., VigorAP 906)
registered to the Vigor router. Thus, the bandwidth will not be occupied by certain access points.
However, traffic overload might occur if too many wireless stations are connected to VigorAP 906
for data incoming and outgoing. Therefore, "Force Overload Disassociation" is required to terminate
the network connection of the client's station to release network traffic. When the function of "Force
Overload Disassociation" in the web user interface of the Vigor router is enabled, wireless clients
specified in the Black List of such web page will be disassociated to solve the problem of traffic
overload.
The following web page is used to configure the white list and the Black List for wireless stations.
Available settings are explained as follows:
