DESCRIPTION
These read-only labels represent the physical interfaces.
Select an interface's check box to enable bandwidth management on that interface.
Bandwidth management applies to all traffic flowing out of the router through the
interface, regardless of the traffic's source.
Traffic redirect or IP alias may cause LAN-to-LAN traffic to pass through the Prestige
and be managed by bandwidth management.
Bandwidth management controls outgoing traffic on an interface, not incoming. In order
to limit the download bandwidth of the LAN users, set the bandwidth management class
on the LAN. In order to limit the upload bandwidth, set the bandwidth management class
on the corresponding WAN interface.
bandwidth management.
This appears as the bandwidth budget of the interface's root class. The recommendation
is to set this speed to match what the interface's connection can handle. For example,
set the WAN interface speed to 1000 kbps if the ADSL connection has an upstream
speed of 1000 kbps.
Select either Priority-Based or Fairness-Based from the drop-down menu to control
the traffic flow.
Select Priority-Based to give preference to bandwidth classes with higher priorities.
Select Fairness-Based to treat all bandwidth classes equally.
Select this check box to have the Prestige divide up all of the interface's unallocated
and/or unused bandwidth among the bandwidth classes that require bandwidth. Do not
select this if you want to reserve bandwidth for traffic that does not match a bandwidth
class or you want to limit the speed of this interface (see the Speed field description).
