DATA USAGE
Data Usage displays upload and download traffic for each LAN client. Check Monitor Monthly (or Weekly or Daily)
Usage to begin tracking this information. This data is not retained between router reboots.
For Monthly and Weekly you are able to specify the day to
start each cycle (e.g. the 1st or Tuesday, respectively).
Usage Cap: Enter a Cap amount in Megabytes. 1024
Megabyte is equal to 1 Gigabyte.
Use with Load Balancing: When checked, the Load
Balancing feature is allowed to use the thresholds and
metrics of this rule when making balance decisions. This
causes Load Balancing to spread the data usage between
interfaces according to the assigned usage rather than
bandwidth. This is a best effort to keep all interfaces with
these rules at a similar percentage utilization of data (e.g.
10%, 50%, 90%) as the cycle progresses, rather than quickly
using 100% of a fast 1GB capped interface while using only
a fraction of a slow 10GB capped interface, thus leaving
the rest of the cycle with only the slow interface. The Data
Usage algorithm on the WAN Affinity/Load Balancing page
must be selected or this checkbox has no effect.
Shutdown on Cap: When checked, the WAN device will shutdown when the assigned usage is reached. A cycle reset or
a rule deletion will re-enable the device.
Alert on Cap: An email alert will be generated and sent when the assigned data cap is reached. NOTE: The SMTP mail
server must be configured in System > Device Alerts.
Custom Alerts: Check to enable custom alerts at specified percentage of
usage cap.
Custom Alert Percentages: Example: "50,80,90,110" (values can exceed
100%) (Triggers alerts when 50, 80, 90, 110% of usage cap is used)
NOTE: To enable data usage, check Data Usage Enabled from WAN
Management.
