A connection has an outbound and inbound packet flow. The ZyWALL controls the bandwidth
of traffic of both flows as it is going out through an interface or VPN tunnel.
‧ Outbound traffic flows from the connection initiator to the connection responder.
‧ Inbound traffic flows from the connection responder to the connection initiator.
For example, a LAN to WAN connection is initiated from the LAN and goes to the WAN.
‧ Outbound traffic goes from a LAN zone device to a WAN zone device. Bandwidth
management is applied before sending the packets out a WAN zone interface on the ZyWALL.
‧ Inbound traffic comes back from the WAN zone device to the LAN zone device. Bandwidth
management is applied before sending the traffic out a LAN zone interface.
Bandwidth management is very useful when applications are competing for limited bandwidth.
Here is an example of what the rules need to accomplish. See the following sections for more
details.
For proper network usage, the IT manager requires the network administrator to configure
ZyWALL AppPatrol according to company IT policy as:
Boss: Can use any internet application without access control and bandwidth limitation.
Sales: Can use instant messaging application (MSN) for text message and file transfer
purpose. Application allowed during certain period of time between 8:00~18:00 with
bandwidth limitation 500K bps.
RD: Allows instant messaging chat but file transfer within period 8:00~20:00. Bandwidth
