Bandwidth control

Open the Network > Bandwidth control page.
Outgoing traffic
These parameters enable you to limit the flow of data traffic through the CN3000 by
controlling the total outgoing bandwidth allocated to each port.
throttle
• If outgoing traffic arrives at the port at the defined bandwidth limit (or less), it is
• If outgoing traffic arrives at the port at a rate that is greater than the defined bandwidth
Examples
• If you want to limit the traffic that wireless client stations can download from the
• If you want to limit the traffic that LAN client stations can download from the Internet to
• If you want to limit the amount of traffic that wireless and LAN client stations can

limit, it causes the CN3000 to throttle the traffic for that port. If the traffic rate is over-
limit for just a short burst, the data will be queued and forwarded without loss. If the
traffic rate is over-limit for a sustained period, the CN3000 will drop data to bring the
rate down to the bandwidth limit that is set.
Internet to 500kbps, set a value of 500 for the wireless port.
1000kbps, set a value of 1000 for the LAN port.
upload to the Internet to 800 kbps, set a value of 800 for the Internet port.
