Configuring Traffic Metering
Traffic metering allows you to measure and limit the traffic routed by this router. To
configure traffic metering:
STEP 1 Choose QoS > Traffic Meter.
STEP 2 Check the Enable box to enable traffic metering on the optional WAN port. The
router will keep a record of the volume of traffic going from this interface. The
router can also be configured to place a restriction on the volume of data being
transferred.
STEP 3 Choose the Traffic Limit type:
• No Limit—The default option, where no limits on data transfer are imposed.
Choosing this option displays the outgoing and incoming traffic volume in
the Internet Traffic Statistics section on the page. If traffic metering is not
enabled, these statistics are not shown.
• Download Only—Limits the amount of download traffic. Enter the maximum
allowed data (in Megabytes) that can be downloaded for a given month in
the Monthly Limit field. Once the limit is reached, no traffic will be allowed
from the WAN side.
• Both Directions—For this setting, the router will calculate traffic for both
upload and download directions. The traffic limit typed into the Monthly
Limit field is shared by both upload and download traffic. For example, for a
1GB limit, if a 700 MB file is downloaded then the remaining 300 MB must
be shared between both upload and download traffic. The amount of traffic
downloaded will reduce the amount of traffic that can be uploaded and
vice-versa.
STEP 4 Enter the volume limit in the Monthly Limit field that is applicable for this month.
This limit will apply to the type of direction (Download Only or Both) selected
above.
