Setting Bandwidth
Reservations
You can use the Client Manager to obtain a de-
fault bandwidth reservation; however, the reser-
vation cannot exceed your system’s device limit
or your client bandwidth limit, whichever is
lower. The Avid Unity ISIS system enforces an
effective bandwidth limit based on either the
client type specified by the Client Manager or
the reserved bandwidth value set in the Admin-
istration tool. Your Avid Unity ISIS administra-
tor sets the bandwidth limits, and the band-
width limit is listed in the Workspaces list.
To set a bandwidth reservation:
1 Open the Client Manager (see “Connecting to
the Avid Unity ISIS System” on page 19).
2 Click Bandwidth.

Setting a bandwidth limit on editing clients
can adversely affect playback performance.
Avid recommends that you do not set band-
width limits for Media Station|PT users
(other than Avid AirSpeed
®
clients). How-
ever, your administrator might need to set a
bandwidth limit for other devices, such as
an Avid Unity TransferManager, in the
event the device is consuming more band-
width than expected.
