Chapter 24 Bandwidth Management
24.3 Proportional Bandwidth Allocation
Bandwidth management allows you to define how much bandwidth each class gets; however,
the actual bandwidth allotted to each class decreases or increases in proportion to actual
available bandwidth.
24.4 Application-based Bandwidth Management
You can create bandwidth classes based on individual applications (like VoIP, Web, FTP, E-
mail and Video for example).
24.5 Subnet-based Bandwidth Management
You can create bandwidth classes based on subnets.
The following figure shows LAN subnets. You could configure one bandwidth class for
subnet A and another for subnet B.
Figure 263 Subnet-based Bandwidth Management Example
24.6 Application and Subnet-based Bandwidth Management
You could also create bandwidth classes based on a combination of a subnet and an
application. The following example table shows bandwidth allocations for application specific
traffic from separate LAN subnets.
