31.1 Bandwidth Management Overview
Bandwidth management provides a convenient way to manage the use of various services on the
network. It manages general protocols (for example, HTTP and FTP) and applies traffic prioritization
to enhance the performance of delay-sensitive applications like voice and video.
31.1.1 BWM Type
The ZyWALL / USG supports two types of bandwidth management: shared, per-user and per-
source-ip.
The shared BWM type is selected by default in a bandwidth management rule. All users to which
the rule is applied need to share the bandwidth configured in the rule. If the BWM type is set to
per-user in a rule, every user that matches the rule can use up to the configured bandwidth by
his/her own. Set the BWM type set to per-source-ip in a rule,when you want to set the maximum
bandwidth for traffic from an individual source IP address.
