Chapter 15 Bandwidth Management Table 57 Management > Bandwidth MGMT > Advanced (continued) LABEL Specific Port DESCRIPTION This displays the port/s assigned to the service. You can also specify the port/s to services to which you want to allocate bandwidth. Choose either Both, TCP or UDP in the drop-down menu and enter the port or range of ports in the provided boxes. Bandwidth Allocation # Enable LAN IP Range Direction Port Range Policy Rate Modify Apply Reset Note: If you are entering a specific port and not a range of ports, you can either leave the second port field blank or enter the same port number again. Use this table to allocate specific amounts of bandwidth to specific protocols on an IP or IP range. This is the number of an individual bandwidth management rule. Select this check box to have the NBG-417N apply this bandwidth management rule. This displays the range of IP addresses for which the bandwidth management rule applies. These read-only labels represent uplink or downlink traffic. To LAN applies bandwidth management to traffic from WAN to LAN/WLAN (i.e., downlink). To WAN applies bandwidth management to traffic from LAN/WLAN to WAN (i.e., uplink). Both applies bandwidth management to traffic that the NBG-417N forwards to both the LAN and the WAN. This displays the range of ports for which the bandwidth management rule applies. This displays either Max (maximum) or Min (minimum) and refers to the maximum or minimum bandwidth allowed for the rule in kilobits per second in the field below. This is the maximum or minimum bandwidth allowed (refer to the field above) for the rule in bits per second. Click the Edit icon to open the Rule Configuration screen. Modify an existing rule or create a new rule in the Rule Configuration screen. See Section 15.5.2 on page 133 for more information. Click the Remove icon to delete a rule. Click Apply to save your customized settings. Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh. 15.5.1 Priority Levels Traffic with a higher priority gets through faster while traffic with a lower priority is dropped if the network is congested. The following describes the priorities that you can apply to traffic that the NBG-417N forwards out through an interface. • High - Typically used for voice traffic or video that is especially sensitive to jitter (jitter is the variations in delay). • Low - This is typically used for all other traffic that are not time-sensitive. 132 NBG-417N User's Guide

15.5.1
Priority Levels
Traffic with a higher priority gets through faster while traffic with a lower priority is dropped if the
network is congested.
The following describes the priorities that you can apply to traffic that the NBG-417N forwards out
through an interface.
High
- Typically used for voice traffic or video that is especially sensitive to jitter (jitter is the
variations in delay).
Low
- This is typically used for all other traffic that are not time-sensitive.
Specific Port
This displays the port/s assigned to the service.
You can also specify the port/s to services to which you want to allocate
bandwidth. Choose either
Both
,
TCP
or
UDP
in the drop-down menu and enter
the port or range of ports in the provided boxes.
Note: If you are entering a specific port and not a range of ports, you can either
leave the second port field blank or enter the same port number again.
Bandwidth
Allocation
Use this table to allocate specific amounts of bandwidth to specific protocols on
an IP or IP range.
#
This is the number of an individual bandwidth management rule.
Enable
Select this check box to have the NBG-417N apply this bandwidth management
rule.
LAN IP Range
This displays the range of IP addresses for which the bandwidth management
rule applies.
Direction
These read-only labels represent uplink or downlink traffic.
To LAN
applies bandwidth management to traffic from WAN to LAN/WLAN (i.e.,
downlink).
To WAN
applies bandwidth management to traffic from LAN/WLAN to WAN (i.e.,
uplink).
Both
applies bandwidth management to traffic that the NBG-417N forwards to
both the LAN and the WAN.
Port Range
This displays the range of ports for which the bandwidth management rule
applies.
Policy
This displays either
Max
(maximum) or
Min
(minimum) and refers to the
maximum or minimum bandwidth allowed for the rule in kilobits per second in
the field below.
Rate
This is the maximum or minimum bandwidth allowed (refer to the field above)
for the rule in bits per second.
Modify
Click the
Edit
icon to open the
Rule Configuration
screen. Modify an existing
rule or create a new rule in the
Rule Configuration
screen. See
Section 15.5.2
on page 133
for more information.
Click the
Remove
icon to delete a rule.
