Wizard 1 - Media Bandwidth Management

ZyXEL’s Media Bandwidth Management allows you to specify bandwidth classes based on an application and/or subnet. You can allocate specific amounts of bandwidth capacity (bandwidth budgets) to different bandwidth classes.

The Prestige applies bandwidth management to traffic that it forwards out through an interface. The Prestige does not control the bandwidth of traffic that comes into an interface.

Bandwidth management applies to all traffic flowing out of the router through the interface, regardless of the traffic's source.

Traffic redirect or IP alias may cause LAN-to-LAN traffic to pass through the Prestige and be managed by bandwidth management.

The sum of the bandwidth allotments that apply to the WAN interface (WAN to LAN, LAN to WAN, WAN to WAN / Router) must be less than or equal to the WAN BW Budget that you configure in the Advanced Setup- Media Bandwidth Mgnt. configuration screen.

The sum of the bandwidth allotments that apply to the LAN interface (LAN to WAN, WAN to LAN, LAN to LAN / Router) must be less than or equal to 100,000 kbps (you cannot configure the bandwidth management global setting for the LAN port speed).

The sum of the bandwidth allotments that apply to the WLAN interface (WLAN to WAN, WAN to WLAN, WLAN to WLAN / Router) must be less than or equal to 54,000 kbps (you cannot configure the bandwidth management global setting for the WLAN port speed).
