21.4 Over Allotment of Bandwidth Example
It is possible to set the bandwidth management speed for an interface higher than the
interface’s actual transmission speed. Higher priority traffic gets to use up to its allocated
bandwidth, even if it takes up all of the interface’s available bandwidth. This could stop lower
priority traffic from being sent. The following is an example.
interface’s actual transmission speed. Higher priority traffic gets to use up to its allocated
bandwidth, even if it takes up all of the interface’s available bandwidth. This could stop lower
priority traffic from being sent. The following is an example.
If you use VoIP and NetMeeting at the same time, the device allocates up to 500 Kbps of
bandwidth to each of them before it allocates any bandwidth to FTP. As a result, FTP can only
use bandwidth when VoIP and NetMeeting do not use all of their allocated bandwidth.
Suppose you try to browse the web too. In this case, VoIP, NetMeeting and FTP all have higher
priority, so they get to use the bandwidth first. You can only browse the web when VoIP,
NetMeeting, and FTP do not use all 1000 Kbps of available bandwidth.
