Mission-critical applications

Often, a VPN connection is a mission-critical application for exchanging data between Head and Branch offices.

This mission-critical application must be connected smoothly, without any dropping. To ensure this, you should set the priority to the high level to preventing any other applications from saturating the bandwidth.

Voice applications

Voice applications are latency-sensitive. Most VoIP devices use the SIP protocol, which automatically assigns a port number. . This means that it is better to use a fixed IP address to catch VoIP packets and rout them as high priority traffic.

The settings shown above will help to improve the quality of your VoIP service when the link is fully loaded.

Restricted Application

Some users will setup a FTP server for downloading of their files by means of FTP.

The above settings will help to limit utilization of upstream bandwidth by the FTP connections. A time schedule can be implemented to limit file downloads to non-busy times.

Advanced setting by using IP throttling

With IP throttling you can specify more detail for bandwidth allocation; even if applications are located on the same level.

Upstream: 928kbps (29*32kbps)

Mission-critical Application: 192kbps (6*32kbps)

Voice Application: 128kbps (4*32kbps)

Restricted Application: 160kbps (5*32kbps)

Other Applications: 448kbps (14*32kbps)

6+4+14+5=29, 29*32kbps=928kbps
