20.3 Editing Bandwidth Management Rules

Use the Bandwidth Management Configuration Edit screen to configure a bandwidth
management rule. Use bandwidth rules to allocate specific amounts of bandwidth capacity
(bandwidth budgets) to specific applications and/or subnets.

20.3.1 Bandwidth Borrowing

Enable bandwidth borrowing by selecting Use All Managed Bandwidth on a rule to allow
the rule to use any unused bandwidth. Unused bandwidth is given to the highest priority rule
first.

DESCRIPTION
Select this check box to have the Prestige apply bandwidth management.
Enable bandwidth management to give traffic that matches a bandwidth rule
priority over traffic that does not match a bandwidth rule.
Enabling bandwidth management also allows you to control the maximum
amounts of bandwidth that can be used by traffic that matches a bandwidth rule.
Enter the amount of bandwidth in kbps (2 to 100,000) that you want to allocate for
traffic. 20 kbps to 20,000 kbps is recommended.
The recommendation is to set this speed to be equal to or less than the speed of
the broadband device connected to the WAN port. For example, set the speed to
1000 Kbps (or less) if the broadband device connected to the WAN port has an
upstream speed of 1000 Kbps.
This is the number of an individual bandwidth management rule.
Select To LAN to apply bandwidth management to traffic that the Prestige
forwards to the LAN.
Select To WAN to apply bandwidth management to traffic that the Prestige
forwards to the WAN.
Select To WLAN to apply bandwidth management to traffic that the Prestige
forwards to the WLAN.
Use the auto-generated name or enter a descriptive name of up to 20
alphanumeric characters, including spaces.
Select a service for your rule or you can define your own in the Edit screen.
Enter the port number of the destination. See
port numbers.
Select a priority from the drop down list box. Choose High, Mid or Low.
Select a rule index number's radio button and then click Edit to set up this
bandwidth management rule on the Prestige.
Click Apply to save your customized settings.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
