Athena SWG (formerly Internet Access Gateway) ensures visibility and control across the network, detecting risks like unauthorized access, non-compliant activities, and data leaks to manage endpoints.
The bandwidth limit detects a single user's flow rate during the policy's effective period. When the total bandwidth (upstream or downstream flow) of all applications (specific applications) of the user during the policy's effective period continues to exceed the set flow threshold, this user will be prohibited from surfing the Internet or calling the limited BM channel for corresponding punishment.
Configuration steps:
Step 1.In the Period column in the Bandwidth Per User column of the Bandwidth interface, customize the limitation period according to the needs of the enterprise.
Step 2.In the Application column, check specific applications or all applications according to requirements.
Step 3.In the Type column, you can select the type of traffic detected by the strategy. You can choose the flow rate of inbound, outbound, or bidirectional traffic.
Step 4.Fill in the flow rate threshold for policy detection in the Max Bandwidth column and fill in the time required in the Above Threshold For column. For example, if an enterprise wants to limit users whose total traffic exceeds 2Mbps for 30 minutes, fill in 2Mbps in the Max Bandwidth column and 30 minutes in the Above Threshold For.
