System Configurations Busyhour Settings
E : Check the field to add the list of services to the current service group.
Service : Enter a single or a set of ICMP / ICMPv6 or TCP / UDP ports. Single port fol-
lows the the format: port (xxx). A set of ports follow the format: xxx-yyy e.g.
6891-6900.
Action : Two options, to belong and not to belong, to determines whether service port
defined in [Service] belongs to the service group. For exceptions in a set of
service ports that belongs to the service group, the action of not to belong
makes the configuration easier than separating the set of service ports into
several groups.
Here is an example to elaborate on how to configure [Service Grouping]. Create a service group "MSN File Transfer",
which uses TCP 6891-6900. Then enter TCP@6891-6900 in the [Service] field.
Busyhour Settings
[Busyhour Settings] plays a crucial role in managing bandwidth. .Generally opening hours Mon-Fri: 09h00 to 18h00 is
configured to be busy hours, for this period sees the advent of bandwidth-intensive applications in both intranet and
extranet.
Default Type : Time segment unspecified in [Rules] below fall into this Default type either as idle or
busy hours.
Rules : Defines time segment. The time segments are matched in sequence on a first-match
basis. If none of the rules match, the default type is used. If time segment in [Default
Type] is defined as idle hours, then unspecified time segment in this [Rules] is taken
as idle hours as well.
E : Check the field box to add time segments in this list to [Rules].
Day of Week : Select a day of the week.
From : Start time.
To : End time.
Type : Defines the time segment, either busy or idle hours.
For the case that time period 09:00-18:00 from Monday to Saturday belongs to busy hour and only Sunday belongs to
idle hour, set an idle rule for 00:00-00:00 on Sunday beyond a busy rule for Any day 09:00-18:00. The rule would be
first matched from the top down.
As is shown in the figure, Sunday and hours beyond Mon-Sat: 09h00-18h00 are set to be idle hours. Remaining hours
of the week belong to busy hours.
