Speed Limitation | Egress & Ingress Rate

Hi all!

How can i limit a port to 10 MBit down and 1 MBit up?

The wiki told me that the values in egress & ingress are in bps (so i think bytes per second?) but i am not able to add so high values to the Input-Field.

10 MBit = 10 * 1000 * 1000 / 8 = 1.250.000 bps

But i am only able to write 125.000 to the inputfield.

Hi,

normally bps is short for bits per second.

So a 1 Mbit/s Limit should be 1048576 bps
or 10 Mbit/s Limit should be 10485760 bps

1 Mbit/s is 1024 kbit/s an that are 1048576 bit/s

with that you should be able to put the value you want and need to your configuration, it works i have tested it in this moment :wink:

Now i am really confused. I’ve tested to input the value 1250000 in the input-field but the last zero was not taken. So the input-field was only 125000. Today, it was working. I don’t know why :wink:

Wishlist for Bandwidth-Limitation:

  • Accept values 128k, 6M, 12M, 20M (kBit, MBit)
  • Set field-size to 8 or set a fixed or relative width via CSS property width
  • Change the Label “Bandwidth Limit” to “Bandwidth Limit in bps” and use a acronym-tag for “bps” and describe in attribute title “Bits per second”
