The Traffic will be blocked for value defines time when the restriction for the particular host

will be applied. The P2P Eliminator module enables traffic for this user automatically when

the specified time expires. The time of disconnection should be long enough to make the user

consider consequences and to stop trying to connect to P2P networks.

If traffic of P2P network clients is not blocked, it is possible to set bandwidth limitation for P2P

networks at the bottom of the P2P Eliminator tab. Internet lines are usually asymmetric (the

speed vary for incoming and outgoing direction); therefore, this limitation is set separately for

each direction. Bandwidth limitation applies only to traffic of P2P networks (detected by P2P

Eliminator), other services are not affected.
