Command Syntax and Usage
timepol <BW Contract time policy number (1-2)>
 
name <31 character name>

>> BW Contract 1# name
Current BW Contract name:
Enter new BW Contract name:
policy <Bandwidth policy number (1-512)>
 
Sets the policy number for this Bandwidth Management contract.
Default: 64
prec <Bandwidth precedence value (1-255)>
 
Sets the precedence value for this Bandwidth Management contract.
Default: 1
iptype <sip|dip>
 
Defines the IP type for this contract, whether the user (IP address) limiting is enforced by the source IP address (SIP), or the destination IP address (DIP).
pmirr <port | none>
 
Defines a port to mirror contract packets to.
*port — Enter a valid port to enable this feature.
*non — Disable this feature.
Note: This command is available in maintenance mode only.
iplimit disable|enable
 
Enables or disables user (IP address) limiting for this contract. If enabled, each IP address is limited to the user limit configured using /cfg/bwm/policy <policy number> Bandwidth Management Policy Configuration.
maxsess <maximum sessions (0-65534)>
 
Sets the maximum number of sessions per user or contract.
Default: 0
prefix <0-127)>
 
Sets the length of the prefix for the contract.
Values: 0 – 127
Default: 0
history disable|enable
 
Disables or enables saving statistics for this contract on the server.
Default: enable
wtos disable|enable
 
Disables or enables overwriting the IP Type of Service (TOS) for this contract.
Default: disable
mononly disable|enable
 
Enables monitor-only mode for this contract. This is used for design and auditing purposes only. Statistics are generated, but no shaping or limiting applies to this contract.
wtcpwin disable|enable
 
Enables or disables overwriting TCP Window for this contract. By overwriting the default window size, you can modify the TCP window size to a lower value so that when the packet arrives carrying the bytes within that window size, the receiver of that packet does not have to wait for acknowledgment. This may help reduce the traffic congestion.
Note: Do not set the value to lower than 1500 bytes. For details, refer to the Alteon Command Line Interface Application Guide.
ena
 
Enables this Bandwidth Management contract.
dis
