Configuring the uplink rate limit
Certain downstream devices cannot handle the high traffic rate from the BSG. This feature allows
you to limit the rate of traffic sent on the WAN interface. You should limit the uplink speed only if
your WAN bandwidth is less than 100 Mbps and the device in front of the BSG does not support
pause frame.
Complete this procedure to configure the uplink rate limit.
