Overview
Bandwidth throttling allows the user to limit how much upload or download bandwidth DryvIQ’s jobs use. Throttling can be setup to take affect at certain times of day. Bandwidth throttling can be specified on per job basis. Additionally, the default throttling setting can be set for all jobs that do not have bandwidth specified as part of the job options.
