15.2.2 Bandwidth Class Setup Screen
Use this screen to look at the configured bandwidth classes by individual interface. Each
interface has a permanent root class. The bandwidth budget of the root class is equal to the
speed you configured on the interface (see
). There is a default class
for all the bandwidth in the Root Class that is not allocated to bandwidth classes.
"
For each interface, you must enable bandwidth management before you can
configure classes.
To access this screen, click Management > Bandwidth MGMT > Class Setup.
Figure 81 Management > Bandwidth MGMT > Class Setup
Speed
Enter the amount of bandwidth for this interface that you want to allocate using
bandwidth management.
The recommendation is to set this speed to match the interface’s actual
transmission speed. For example, set the WAN interface speed to 1000 kbps if
your Internet connection has an upstream transmission speed of 1 Mbps.
You can set this number higher than the interface’s actual transmission speed.
This will stop lower priority traffic from being sent if higher priority traffic uses all of
the actual bandwidth.
You can also set this number lower than the interface’s actual transmission speed.
If you do not enable Max Bandwidth Usage, this will cause the ZyXEL Device to
not use some of the interface’s available bandwidth.
This field is not affected by the
.
Scheduler
Select Priority-Based to give preference to bandwidth classes with higher
priorities. Select Fairness-Based to treat all bandwidth classes equally.
Maximize
Bandwidth Usage
Select this if you want the ZyXEL Device to divide any unallocated and unused
bandwidth among bandwidth classes that require bandwidth. Clear this if you want
to reserve bandwidth for traffic that does not match a bandwidth class or if you
want to limit the speed of this interface.
Apply
Click this to save your changes and to apply them to the ZyXEL Device.
