Aspera's fasp transport has no theoretical throughput limit. Other than the network capacity, the transfer speed may be limited by rate settings and resources of the computers. This topic shows you how to optimize the transfer rate by setting up the global rate settings.
To set global fasp bandwidth, bring up the application ( ) and click Preferences. Enter the global bandwidth value in the Global Bandwidth Limiting field.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Default Transfer Rates | The initial download and upload rates for all transfers. |
| Global Bandwidth Limiting | Adjust the aggregated bandwidth cap for all fasp transfers on this computer. For more advanced bandwidth settings, refer to Bandwidth. |
