DESCRIPTION

 

Priority

Enter a number between 1 and 7 to set the priority for traffic that matches this

 

 

policy. The smaller the number, the higher the priority.

 

 

Traffic with a higher priority is given bandwidth before traffic with a lower priority.

 

 

The ZyWALL uses a fairness-based (round-robin) scheduler to divide bandwidth

 

 

between traffic flows with the same priority.

 

 

The number in this field is ignored if the incoming and outgoing limits are both set to

 

 

0. In this case the traffic is automatically treated as being set to the lowest priority

 

 

(7) regardless of this field’s configuration.

 

 

 

 

Maximize

Enable maximize bandwidth usage to let the traffic matching this policy “borrow”

 

Bandwidth

any unused bandwidth on the out-going interface.

 

Usage

After each application or type of traffic gets its configured bandwidth rate, the

 

 

ZyWALL uses the fairness- based scheduler to divide any unused bandwidth on

 

 

the out-going interface amongst applications and traffic types that need more

 

 

bandwidth and have maximize bandwidth usage enabled.

 

 

 

 

Log

This field controls what kind of record the ZyWALL creates when traffic matches

 

 

this policy. Please see Chapter 46 on page 625 for more information.
