Command
|
LIMIT BANDWIDTH
|
Description
|
Sets a fixed bandwidth limitation for transmitting data from the source to the target
|
Syntax
|
LIMIT BANDWIDTH <bytes>, <seconds> TO <target>
|
Options
|
- bytes—Number of bytes to be transmitted
- seconds—Maximum number of seconds to wait before transmitting again
- target—Name of the target, an IP address on the target, or a virtual IP address. Depending on the network route Double-Take Availability uses to access the target, you may need to specify the fully qualified domain name.
|
Examples
|
limit bandwidth 19300, 5 to beta |
Notes
|
- This command transmits in bursts, not bytes per seconds. The time identifies how long to wait before transmitting again. For example, if 5 seconds are specified and it only takes 2 seconds to send the specified bytes, Double-Take Availability will wait an additional 3 seconds before transmitting again.
- Target names that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be enclosed in quotation marks.
