CHAPTER 39
Bandwidth Management
39.1 Bandwidth Management Overview
Bandwidth management provides a convenient way to manage the use of various services on the
network. It manages general protocols (for example, HTTP and FTP) and applies traffic prioritization
to enhance the performance of delay-sensitive applications like voice and video.
39.1.1 BWM Type
The UAG supports two types of bandwidth management: shared and per-user.
The shared BWM type is selected by default in a bandwidth management rule. All users to which
the rule is applied need to share the bandwidth configured in the rule. If the BWM type is set to
per-uer in a rule, every user that matches the rule can use up to the configured bandwidth by his/
her own.
39.2 Bandwidth Management Commands
The following table lists the bwm commands. You must use the configure terminal command to
enter the configuration mode before you can use these commands.
