Protocol:
Select the supported protocol from the drop down list.
DSCP Marking:
Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), it is the first 6 bits in the ToS byte.
DSCP Marking allows users to classify the traffic of the application to be executed according to the
DSCP value.

DSCP offers three levels of service, Class Selector (CS), Assured Forwarding (AF) and Expedited
Forwarding (EF). AF1, AF2, AF3 and AF4 are four levels of assured forwarding services. Each AF
has three different packet loss priorities from high, medium, to low. Also, CS1-CS7 indicates the IP
precedence.
Rate Type:
You can choose
Limited
or
Prioritization
.

Limited (Maximum):
Specify a limited data rate for this policy. It also is the maximum rate
for this policy. When you choose
Limited
, type the
Ratio
proportion. As above FTP server
example, you may want to “throttle” the outgoing FTP speed to 20% of 256K and limit to it,
you may use this type.

Prioritization:
Specify the rate type control for the rule to used. If you choose
Prioritization
for the rule, you parameter
Priority
would be available, you can set the priority for this rule.

Set DSCP Marking:
When select
Set DSCP Marking
, the packets matching the rule will be
forwarded according to the pre-set DSCP marking.
Ratio:
The rate percent of each application/policy compared to total traffic on the interface with
limited rate type. For example, we want to only allow 20% of the total data for the LAN-to-WAN
direction to be used for FTP server. Then we can specify here with data ratio = 20. If you have ADSL
LINE with 256K/bps.rate, the estimated data rate, in kbps, for this rule is 20%*256*0.9 = 46kbps.
(For 0.9 is an estimated factor for the effective data transfer rate for an ADSL LINE from LAN to
WAN. For WAN-to-LAN, it is 0.85 to 0.8)
Priority:
Set the priority given to each policy/application. Specify the priority for the use of bandwidth.
You can specify which application can have higher priority to acquire the bandwidth. Its default
setting is set to Normal. You may adjust this setting to fit your policy / application.
