Configuring Bandwidth Profile Objects

Bandwidth profile objects are based on policies that specify bandwidth limitations for traffic classes. A complete bandwidth management policy consists of two parts:

• A classifier
• A bandwidth rule

A classifier specifies the actual parameters, such as priority, guaranteed bandwidth, and maximum bandwidth, and is configured in a bandwidth profile object. Classifiers identify and organize packets into traffic classes by matching specific criteria.

Configuring the bandwidth profile object includes:

• Defining Bandwidth Profile Object Settings
• Enabling BWM on an Interface
