Limit

What can I do here?

Use this window to create or edit a bandwidth limit object to use in rules for Application Control.

Bandwidth Rate Limits

Use the Limit object in the Action column to restrict the bandwidth that is permitted for an Application Control and URL Filtering rule. Configure a maximum throughput for uploads and downloads. The Limit action makes sure that employee use of the internet does not impede important business tasks.

You can add one Limit object to a rule.

It can include upload and download rates.

For each option, select a number and unit to define the maximum permitted bandwidth for that action.

• Download - From the internet to the organization.
• Upload - From the organization to the internet.

When the limit is reached, the gateway starts to drop packets. Dropped packets show in the Application Control logs.
