Figure 40. Rate Limit page

Limiting bandwidth to specific users and ports helps control network congestion, ensure high performance, create efficient networks, and prevent a small number of users from monopolizing network bandwidth.

Rate limiting control can be used to intelligently manage bandwidth allocation in the networking. It can pre- vent one user or device from dominating the available network bandwidth, and it allows IT managers to allo- cate greater bandwidth to the departments and applications that need it.

You can set up the data rate limit on each port from 0 to 22. The data rates available are 00 (No limit), and the Ingress Rate x 1024kbps. The default setting is No limit on each port.

Flow Control

Click on Flow Control under Advanced on the main menu to reach the Flow Control configuration page. When the Flow Control option is enabled, the 2160 controls the packet size.
