Bandwidth Control Settings

The Effective RX/TX Rate refers to the actual bandwidth of the switch port, if it does not match the configured rate.
This usually means that the bandwidth has been assigned by a higher priority resource, such as a RADIUS server.

Description
Select the switch unit to configure.
Use the drop-down menu to select the port range to use for this configuration.
This drop-down menu allows a selection between RX (receive), TX (transmit), and
Both. This setting will determine whether the bandwidth ceiling is applied to receiving,
transmitting, or both receiving and transmitting packets.
This drop-down menu allows the user to specify that the selected port will have no
bandwidth limit or not.
NOTE: If the configured number is larger than the port speed, it means no bandwidth
limit.
This field allows the input of the data rate that will be the limit for the selected port. The
user may choose a rate between 8 and 10240000 Kbits per second.
If a RADIUS server has assigned the RX bandwidth, then it will be the effective RX
bandwidth. The authentication with the RADIUS sever can be per port or per user. For
per user authentication, there may be multiple RX bandwidths assigned if there are
