Conditioning

You can condition or manage the traffic with the help of any of the available methods, policing, queuing, and shaping. SonicOS provides internal conditioning capabilities with its Egress and Ingress Bandwidth Management (BWM). SonicOS’s BWM is a perfectly effective solution for fully autonomous private networks with sufficient bandwidth, but can become somewhat less effective as more unknown external network elements and bandwidth contention are introduced. Refer to DSCP marking: Example scenario in 802.1p Marking for a description of contention issues.
