Inbound kbps
Type how much inbound bandwidth, in kilobits per second, this policy allows the
traffic to use. Inbound refers to the traffic the ZyWALL sends to a connection’s
initiator.
If you enter 0 here, this policy does not apply bandwidth management for the
matching traffic that the ZyWALL sends to the initiator. Traffic with bandwidth
management disabled (inbound and outbound are both set to 0) is automatically
treated as the lowest priority (7).
If the sum of the bandwidths for routes using the same next hop is higher than the
actual transmission speed, lower priority traffic may not be sent if higher priority
traffic uses all of the actual bandwidth.

kbps
Type how much outbound bandwidth, in kilobits per second, this policy allows the
traffic to use. Outbound refers to the traffic the ZyWALL sends out from a
connection’s initiator.
If you enter 0 here, this policy does not apply bandwidth management for the
matching traffic that the ZyWALL sends out from the initiator. Traffic with bandwidth
management disabled (inbound and outbound are both set to 0) is automatically
treated as the lowest priority (7).

Priority
Enter a number between 1 and 7 to set the priority for traffic that matches this
policy. The smaller the number, the higher the priority.
Traffic with a higher priority is given bandwidth before traffic with a lower priority.
The ZyWALL uses a fairness-based (round-robin) scheduler to divide bandwidth
between traffic flows with the same priority.
The number in this field is ignored if the incoming and outgoing limits are both set to
0. In this case the traffic is automatically treated as being set to the lowest priority
(7) regardless of this field’s configuration.

Usage
Bandwidth
Usage
Enable maximize bandwidth usage to let the traffic matching this policy “borrow”
any unused bandwidth on the out-going interface.
After each application or type of traffic gets its configured bandwidth rate, the
ZyWALL uses the fairness- based scheduler to divide any unused bandwidth on
the out-going interface amongst applications and traffic types that need more
bandwidth and have maximize bandwidth usage enabled.

this policy. Please see
