Values
Default
Incoming Target Rate
Default (Kbps)
The default initial rate for incoming
transfers, in kilobits per second. If allowed
("Incoming Target Rate Lock" is set to
false
), clients can modify this rate in
real time. This setting is not relevant to
transfers with a
fixed
bandwidth policy.
positive integer
10000
Incoming Target Rate
Lock
Lock the target rate of incoming transfers
to the default value (set to
true
). Set to
false
to allow users to adjust the transfer
rate of an incoming transfer up to the
"Incoming Target Rate Cap".
true
or
false
false
Incoming Minimum Rate
Cap (Kbps)
The highest minimum rate that an
incoming transfer can request, in kilobits
per second. Client minimum rate requests
that exceed the minimum rate cap are
ignored. The default value of
unlimited
applies no cap to the minimum rate.
Important:
Aspera strongly recommends
setting the minimum rate cap to zero.
Transfers do not slow below the client's
requested minimum rate unless the
minimum rate is capped on the server. If
the client-requested minimum rate exceeds
network or storage capacity, this can
decrease transfer performance and cause
problems on the target storage.
positive integer or
unlimited
unlimited
Incoming Minimum Rate
Default (Kbps)
The default initial minimum rate for
incoming transfers, in kilobits per second.
If allowed ("Incoming Minimum Rate
Lock" is set to
false
), clients can modify
the minimum rate in real time, up to the
"Incoming Minimum Rate Cap". This
setting is not relevant to transfers with a
fixed
bandwidth policy.
positive integer
0
Incoming Minimum Rate
Lock
Lock the minimum rate of incoming
transfers to the default value (set to
true
).
Set to
false
to allow users to adjust the
minimum transfer rate up to the "Incoming
Minimum Rate Cap". This setting is
not relevant to transfers with a
fixed
bandwidth policy.
Important:
Aspera strongly recommends
setting a lock on minimum rate to prevent
transfers from using minimum rates
that can overwhelm network or storage
capacity, decrease transfer performance,
and cause problems on the target storage.
