BES Client Setting: Enable/Disable Dynamic Throttling
| 0 Votes |
Description
| The BES Platform can dynamically throttle network traffic to use a percentage of the available bandwidth when existing network traffic is detected. When dynamic throttling is enabled, BES will monitor and analyze existing data throughput to establish a throttled rate for network communication. Dynamic throttling will only work correctly on endpoints when their parent has the same setting enabled. For example, client dynamic throttling will not function unless the client machine's parent relay also has dynamic throttling enabled, and likewise with a relay and server. In order to use this feature, please first deploy this task to all systems to globally enable the dynamic throttling setting. Once the task has completed, please use the following task to set actual throttling rates: Note: Do not set the "Reapply" behavior when taking this action or you may cause the BES Client to constantly reset this setting. |
