Operation Manual

Rule Name: Give your rule a name for later recognition.
WAN Selection: Select from the dropdown list of currently attached WAN devices.
Assigned Usage in MB: Enter a cap amount in megabytes. 1024 megabytes equals 1 gigabyte.
Rule Enabled: (Default: Enabled.) Click to disable.
Use with Load Balancing: When checked, the Load Balancing feature is allowed to use the thresholds and metrics of
this rule when making balance decisions. This causes Load Balancing to spread the data usage between interfaces
according to the assigned usage rather than bandwidth. This is a best effort to keep all interfaces with these rules at a
similar percentage utilization of data (e.g. 10%, 50%, 90%) as the cycle progresses, rather than quickly using 100% of a
fast 1 GB capped interface while using only a fraction of a slow 10 GB capped interface, thus leaving the rest of the
cycle with only the slow interface. To use this setting, you must also go to the Internet → WAN Affinity / Load
Balancing page. For the Load Balance Algorithm field select "Data Usage."

Cycle Type: How often the rule will reset. The data usage amount will be reset at the end of each cycle. Select the
