Instant Bandwidth contract - how to excluded network?

    Posted May 18, 2018 04:44 PM

    Is it possible to apply a bandwidth contrat per role with a "whitelist bandwidth contract"?

    Example: the role "student" have a bandwidth contract of 10mpbs upstream and downstream but we want to give full bandwidth to all internal network like 192.168.1.0/24. So only internet traffic will be limited to 10mbps. 

     

    We can add a rule to permit or block specific network but is there a way to exclude this network from the bandwidth contract?

     

    Instant OS version: 6.5.4.7

    No. The bandwidth contract is applied to the role, so students and teachers could have different bandwidth contracts based on being in different roles, but all traffic in the role limited by the contract in place.

    Ok thanks! I understand that bandwidth contract doesn't support network exclusion (or network whitelisting).

     

    So since we can't do what we want directly with Aruba Instant, we end up with assigning differents VLANs base on the users roles and do trafic limiting with the external firewall for each of those vlans.
