Question: When do I use Per-User Bandwidth Control by IP, MAC, or IP segment?
Answer: In general, IP address control limits the devices on the end node (i.e. PC and
WISP router). MAC address control can limit the traffic of a AP/CPE in
wireless client mmode.
 IP address: When you want to limit the bandwidth of a single notebook
computer, PC, or WISP router.
 MAC address: When you want to limit the bandwidth of a remote
AP/CPE in Client mode. For example, another WHA-5500CPE-NT in
client mode
 IP Segment:: When you want to limit the bandwidth of an entire IP range.
For example, all the PCs using the DHCP server to get IP addresses.
