3-4. Bandwidth Management

Function name:

Bandwidth Management

Function description:

Bandwidth Management function is used to set up the limit of Ingress and Egress bandwidth for each port.

Note:

Each port of the switch owns 16KB packet buffer. The packet buffer size will be reduced when the bandwidth rate limitation is enabled, which may cause that jumbo frame cannot be forwarded.

Please avoid enabling jumbo frame and bandwidth rating functions at the same time.
