25.4.1 Bandwidth Borrowing Example
Here is an example of bandwidth management with classes configured for bandwidth
borrowing. The classes are set up based on departments and individuals within certain
departments.
Refer to the product specifications chapter to see how many class levels you can configure on
your ZyWALL.
• The Bill class can borrow unused bandwidth from the Sales USA class because the Bill
class has bandwidth borrowing enabled.
• The Bill class can also borrow unused bandwidth from the Sales class because the Sales
USA class also has bandwidth borrowing enabled.
• The Bill class cannot borrow unused bandwidth from the Root class because the Sales
class has bandwidth borrowing disabled.
• The Amy class cannot borrow unused bandwidth from the Sales USA class because the
Amy class has bandwidth borrowing disabled.
Source Address Type Do you want your rule to apply to packets coming from a particular (single) IP,
a range of IP addresses (for example 192.168.1.10 to 192.169.1.50) or a
subnet? Select Single Address, Range Address or Subnet Address.
Source IP Address Enter the single IP address or the starting IP address in a range here.

Refer to Appendix E on page 817 for more information on IP subnetting.
