over traffic that does not match the rule.

amounts of bandwidth that can be used by traffic that matches the rule.
Rule Name Use the auto-generated name or enter a descriptive name of up to 20
alphanumeric characters, including spaces.
BW Budget Specify the maximum bandwidth allowed for the rule in kbps. The
recommendation is a setting between 20 kbps and 20000 kbps for an individual
rule.

Use All Managed
Bandwidth

the highest priority is the first to borrow bandwidth. Do not select this if you want
to leave bandwidth available for other traffic types or if you want to restrict the
amount of bandwidth that can be used for the traffic that matches this rule.

Marking
