Configure Virtual Links (Vlink) on a node to create a "virtual" bandwidth cap for the
node. Transfer sessions assigned to the same Vlink take up equal shares of the capped
bandiwdth.
-
Go to Nodes, find the desired node, and click
edit. Click Vlinks > New
Vlink.
-
Enter a number for the Vlink ID and name the Vlink. Sessions
assigned with the same ID share the same bandwidth cap.
-
Select True to activate the Vlink.
-
Enter a value for the capacity. When applying this Vlink to a transfer, the transfer's
bandwidth will be restricted by this value.
-
Click Create.
After creating a new Vlink, you have the option of configuring the Vlink to run on a
schedule by clicking Edit Time Varying Schedule and then
New Schedule. For more information on scheduling Vlinks,
see Scheduling Virtual Links.
