Step 8
To enforce a schedule for bandwidth management to the upstream destination, select the
Enable Bandwidth Management checkbox and then select the desired schedule from the
Schedule drop-down list. You can configure an appropriate schedule on the Policy >
Schedules page.
When the schedule for Bandwidth Management is in the “off” period, SonicWALL CDP will use
all available offsite bandwidth to synchronize data.

Configuring the Upstream CDP Appliance Quota
The SonicWALL CDP Site-to-Site Data Backup provides different services, ranging from 5 to
100 GB of quota. The quota is the maximum amount of data that can be backed up. You need
to make sure that the total size of all of your backups does not exceed the quota limit. If quota
is exceeded, a subsequent backup will fail, the
Quota Exceeded Error message will be
displayed, and the status for the last backup will change to Quota Exceeded . You will receive
an email notification informing you of the failed backup attempt. You can free up your storage
space by removing some of the old backups, or you can purchase additional quota.
For information about editing the default policy quota or creating a custom policy with a custom
quota, refer to the
“Creating a Global Policy” section on page 82 .
