Chapter 14 - Traffic Control
Traffic Control Configuration
Note Traffic Control is mutually exclusive of Traffic Prioritization. Do
not enable both of these features at once.
TC Interfaces (tcdevices)
This Menu allows you to add, edit or remove traffic classification interfaces, and to
assign the maximum inbound and outbound bandwidths that the interface can handle.
Add a new traffic classification interface by selecting the Add a new traffic
classification interface link or by clicking on the add-above or add-below images in
the Add column.
Clicking on a link in the Interface column will allow you to edit or delete a traffic
classification interface as shown below. The Manually Edit File button also allows
you to make direct changes to the TC interface configuration file.
The Interface field specifies a network interface whose traffic will be controlled by
the TC subsystem.
The In bandwidth field specifies the maximum inbound bandwidth that the interface
can handle. If the rate exceeds this value, packets may be delayed or potentially
dropped.
The Out bandwidth field specifies the maximum outbound bandwidth that the
interface can handle. Outbound traffic above this rate is delayed or potentially
dropped.
Bandwidth is specified in either kilobytes per second (kbps), or kilobits per second
(kbit).
