Application
Throttling
Application throttling allows you to set a bandwidth limit for an application, application
category, web category, or for sites based on their web reputation. For example, you can
limit the bandwidth rate for video streaming applications such as YouTube or Netflix, or
assign a low bandwidth to high risk sites. If your W-IAP model does not support configuring
access rules based on application or application category, you can create a rule based on
web category or website reputation and assign bandwidth rates.
To specify a bandwidth limit:
1. Select the Application Throttling checkbox.
2. Specify the downstream and upstream rates in Kbps.
Action
Select any of following actions:
l Select Allow to allow access users based on the access rule.
l Select Deny to deny access to users based on the access rule.
