ZyWALL 10~100 Series Internet Security Gateway

Bandwidth Management

25-15

Table 25-4 Bandwidth Manager: Class Configuration

FIELD DESCRIPTION

BW Budget (kbps)

Specify the maximum bandwidth allowed for the class in kbps. The recommendation
is a setting between 20 kbps and 20000 kbps for an individual class.

Priority

Enter a number between 0 and 7 to set the priority of this class. The higher the
number, the higher the priority. The default setting is 3.

Borrow bandwidth
from parent class

Select this option to allow a child-class to borrow bandwidth from its parent class if
the parent class is not using up its bandwidth budget.

Bandwidth borrowing is governed by the priority of the child-classes. That is, a child-
class with the highest priority (7) is the first to borrow bandwidth from its parent
class.

Do not select this for the classes directly below the root class if you want to leave
bandwidth available for other traffic types (see 25.6.1) or you want to set the
interface’s speed to match what the next device in network can handle (see the
Speed field description in Table 25-2).

Enable Bandwidth
Filter

Select Enable Bandwidth Filter to have the ZyWALL use this bandwidth filter when
it performs bandwidth management.

Mask
fields which are only available when you enter the destination or source IP

Enter the source subnet mask. This field is N/A if you do not specify a Source
Address
