2.4.2Busyhour Setting

Busyhour Setting is very important from a MIS manager’s point of view. It provides a tool for you to define two time segments: busy-hour and idle-hour. All other rule-based services such as bandwidth management and auto-routing can take advantage of this function. For example, you can define 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday to be busy-hour. Then you can reserve bandwidth to business-related network traffic during busy-hour and relax the rule on idle-hour.
