DESCRIPTION
Select this check box to have the ZyXEL Device apply this bandwidth
management rule.
Enable a bandwidth management rule to give traffic that matches the rule
priority over traffic that does not match the rule.
Enabling a bandwidth management rule also allows you to control the maximum
amounts of bandwidth that can be used by traffic that matches the rule.
Use the auto-generated name or enter a descriptive name of up to 20
alphanumeric characters, including spaces.
Specify the maximum bandwidth allowed for the rule in kbps. The
recommendation is a setting between 20 kbps and 20000 kbps for an individual
rule.
Select a priority from the drop down list box. Choose High, Mid or Low.
Select this option to allow a rule to borrow unused bandwidth on the interface.
Bandwidth borrowing is governed by the priority of the rules. That is, a rule with
the highest priority is the first to borrow bandwidth. Do not select this if you want
to leave bandwidth available for other traffic types or if you want to restrict the
amount of bandwidth that can be used for the traffic that matches this rule.
