Mission-critical application
VPN connection is a mission-critical application used for data exchange between head ofce and
branch ofce. This mission-critical application must be sent out smoothly without any dropping. Set
this application as high priority to prevent other applications to saturate the bandwidth.
Voice application
Voice is latency-sensitive application. Most VoIP devices use SIP protocol and the port number will
be assigned by SIP module automatically. It is recommended to set a high priority for catching VoIP
packets with a xed IP address. The settings will help to improve the quality of your VoIP service
when the trafc loading is full.
Restricted Application
Some companies will setup a FTP server for customers to download les or home users to share
their les via FTP. The settings help to limit upstream utilization of the FTP. Time schedule feature
also helps to limit daytime utilization.
Advanced setting by using IP throttling
With IP throttling you can set more detailed parameters to manage bandwidth allocation even when
the applications are located on the same level.
Upstream: 928kbps (29*32kbps)
Mission-critical Application: 192kbps (6*32kbps)
Voice Application: 128kbps (4*32kbps)
Restricted Application: 160kbps (5*32kbps)
Other Applications: 448kbps (14*32kbps)
6+4+14+5=29, 29*32kbps=928kbps
Sometime your customers or friends may upload their les to your FTP server and saturate your
downstream bandwidth. The settings below can help you to limit the bandwidth for the restricted
application.
