328 Chapter 19 Bandwidth Management
3 The ZyWALL assigns any remaining unused or unbudgeted bandwidth on the interface to
any bandwidth class that requires it. The ZyWALL gives priority to bandwidth classes of
higher priority and treats bandwidth classes of the same level equally.
4 The ZyWALL assigns any remaining unbudgeted bandwidth to traffic that does not
match any of the bandwidth classes.
19.8 Configuring Summary
Click BW MGMT to open the Summary screen.
Enable bandwidth management on an interface and set the maximum allowed bandwidth for
that interface.
Figure 162 Bandwidth Manager: Summary
The following table describes the labels in this screen.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
WAN1
WAN2
LAN
DMZ These read-only labels represent the physical interfaces. Select an interface’s check
box to enable bandwidth management on that interface. Bandwidth management
applies to all traffic flowing out of the router through the interface, regardless of the
traffic’s source.
Traffic redirect or IP alias may cause LAN-to-LAN or DMZ-to-DMZ traffic to pass
through the ZyWALL and be managed by bandwidth management.
Active Select an interface’s check box to enable bandwidth management on that interface.
Speed (kbps) Enter the amount of bandwidth for this interface that you want to allocate using
bandwidth management.
This appears as the bandwidth budget of the interface’s root class (
see the
Configuring Class Setup section ). The recommendation is to set this speed to match
what the device connected to the port can handle. For example, set the WAN
interface speed to 1000 kbps if the broadband device connected to the WAN port
has an upstream speed of 1000 kbps.
