10.2 Rate Limit Global Settings
Figure 10-1 Rate Limit Global Settings
 Enable Rate Limit: It allows you to enable or disable rate limit. If you select the check
box to enable rate limit, the configured rate limit rules will take effect. Else the rate
limit rules will be of no effect.
 Capacity: It specifies the maximum number of network devices (PC or other network
device) that can be connected to the Device at the same time. Depending on the ratio
of the actual capacity (i.e., total number of network devices connected to the Device)
to this user-defined capacity, we divide the bandwidth utilization into four levels: Idle,
Normal, Busy, and Exhausted. Refer to 10.1.3 Implementation of Bandwidth
Management for more information.
¾ Save: Click it to save the rate limit global settings.
Note
The units of bandwidth and rate generally are Kbit/s (Kilobit per second) and KByte/s
or KB/s (Kilobyte per second). The conversion formulas are as follows:
z Byte = 8 bits
z Kilobyte = 1024 bytes or 8192 (8 x 1024) bits
z Megabyte = 1024 Kilobytes or 1.048.576 (1024 x 1024) bytes or 8.388.608 bits
z Gigabyte = 1024 Megabytes or 1.073.741.824 bytes or 8.589.934.592 bits
For example, 10 Mbit/s = 10240 Kbit/s = 10240/8 KByte/s = 1280 KByte/s
