Field Description Values Default
setting of unlimited applies no target
rate cap.
Outgoing Target Rate
Default (Kbps)
The default initial rate for outgoing
transfers, in kilobits per second. If allowed
("Outgoing Target Rate Lock" is set to
false), clients can modify this rate
in real time up to the "Outgoing Target
Rate Cap". This setting is not relevant to
transfers with a fixed bandwidth policy.
positive integer 10000
Outgoing Target Rate
Lock
Lock the target rate of outgoing transfers
to the default value (set to true). Set to
false to allow users to adjust the transfer
rate of an outgoing transfer.
true or false false
Outgoing Minimum Rate
Cap (Kbps)
The highest minimum rate that an outgoing
transfer can request, in kilobits per second.
Client minimum rate requests that exceed
the minimum rate cap are ignored. The
default value of unlimited applies no
cap to the minimum rate.
Important: Aspera strongly recommends
setting the minimum rate cap to zero.
Transfers do not slow below the client's
requested minimum rate unless the
minimum rate is capped on the server. If
the client-requested minimum rate exceeds
network or storage capacity, this can
decrease transfer performance and cause
problems on the target storage.
positive integer unlimited
Outgoing Minimum Rate
Default
The default initial minimum rate for
outgoing transfers, in kilobits per second.
If allowed ("Outgoing Minimum Rate
Lock" is set to false), clients can modify
the minimum rate in real time up to the
"Outgoing Minimum Rate Cap". This
setting is not relevant to transfers with a
fixed bandwidth policy.
positive integer 0
Outgoing Minimum Rate
Lock
Lock the minimum rate of outgoing
transfers to the default value (set to true).
Set to false to allow users to adjust
the minimum transfer rate. This setting
is not relevant to transfers with a fixed
bandwidth policy.
Important: Aspera strongly recommends
setting a lock on minimum rate to prevent
transfers from using minimum rates
that can overwhelm network or storage
capacity, decrease transfer performance,
and cause problems on the target storage.
