RE: [pacnog] Bandwidth Manager

["Alo Anesi" <Alo.Anesi@bluesky.as>]

As another alternative, we recently moved from the Packeteer to the Netenforcer from Allot Communications. Other than some configuration issues, we have been pretty happy with the performance.
 
There's an old review (ca. 2002) at http://www.net.cmu.edu/docs/arch/qospe-pre.html by Carnegie Mellon University.
 
So far, the features are almost identical across the board, but I definitely preferred the web interface on the Netenforcer. One caveat is that the web interface is very picky about the version of Java installed.
 
Your mileage may vary. =)

Hi Jon,

Look at Packeteer. They have ability to manage bandwidth based on a single
IP, Range of IP, IP Blocks,  Protocols, etc.

See url: www.packeteer.com

Alex

Group,

I've been trying to source a *Planet BM-2002 2 Mbps Bandwidth Manager*
(or the BM-2155) and after many calls / emails have found out they are
no longer manufactured.

(http://www.planet.com.tw <http://www.planet.com.tw/> )

I'm waiting for a final email from their head office in Taiwan as they
may have a BM-2155 in stock or could put together a BM-2002 from spares
carried.

I'd appreciate if someone would suggest an alternative.  We need to
manage bandwidth - currently 256 Kbps inbound but the unit should be
capable of 2 Mbps for future expansion - by "Traffic classification
based on IP, IP range/subnet, MAC or TCP/UDP port range".  Other
features needed are remote operation, transperant operation, inbound and
outbound management, configurable guarenteed maximum and available with
levels of priorities, dynamic and prioritised bandwidth sharing, usage
monitoring, etc..

Thanks,

Jon
