Bandwidth limiting determines the speed with which the data is sent from a host.
You can define a bandwidth profile to limit the outbound traffic, thus preventing the
LAN users from consuming all the bandwidth of the Internet link.
Bandwidth limiting is applied according to the WAN Mode settings:
•
Single port and auto-failover modes: Bandwidth limiting is performed on
the available WAN interface.
•
Load balancing mode: Bandwidth limiting is performed on the interface
that you specify in the Bandwidth Profiles Configuration page.
Bandwidth limiting is not applicable to a DMZ interface.
Configuring a bandwidth profile can be done in two steps: Create a bandwidth
profile to establish the parameters for the profile, and then associate this profile
with a traffic selector. The traffic selector identifies the stream of traffic, which will
then be subject to the specified bandwidth control.
