Network connection speed
This option is effective for Windows and Linux operating systems and bootable media.
This option is available when a location on the network (network share, managed vault or an
FTP/SFTP server) is selected as the backup destination.
The option defines the amount of network connection bandwidth allocated for transferring the
backup data.
By default the speed is set to maximum, i.e. the software uses all the network bandwidth it can get
when transferring the backup data. Use this option to reserve a part of the network bandwidth to
other network activities.
The preset is: Maximum.
To set the network connection speed for backup
Do any of the following:
 Click Transferring speed stated as a percentage of the estimated maximum speed of the
network connection, and then drag the slider or type a percentage in the box
 Click Transferring speed stated in kilobytes per second, and then enter the bandwidth limit for
