Policy Type

From the Policy Type drop-down list, select how the policy is applied when it is

 

assigned to multiple firewall rules:

 

Per Policy. The policy limits apply to each firewall rule separately. For example,

 

an outbound maximum bandwidth of 25,000 Kbps would apply to each firewall

 

rule to which the policy is assigned.

 

All Policies. The policy limits apply to all firewall rules together. For example, an

 

outbound maximum bandwidth of 25,000 Kbps would be shared together by all

 

firewall rules to which the policy is assigned.

 

 

Type

From the Type drop-down list, select the type for the bandwidth profile:

 

Group. The profile applies to all users, that is, all users share the available

the available bandwidth.

Create Traffic Meter Profiles

Traffic meter profiles allow you to measure and control traffic that is downloaded and uploaded by users to whom a firewall rule is assigned. When traffic for a profile has reached its configured limit, you can either log or block the traffic. A traffic meter profile differs from the WAN traffic meter (see Enable the WAN Traffic Meter on page 462) in that it applies to one or more firewall rules instead of a WAN interface. A single bandwidth profile can be used for
