Limit bandwidth for a VLAN

bandwidth can be limited in terms of how much speed(mbps/gbps) can be used by each user and not by how much mb/gb can be downloaded by each user.

To limit the speed, you can use traffic shaper objects(policy and objects>object>traffic shaper>create new ) and specify the type(per IP or shared) and then specify the maximum bandwidth and apply the same on the respective policy(VLAN>WAN).

here is few more information about the 2 types of shapers

1: Shared :-

shared gives you 2 options while adding the object

* Per Policy

* For All Policies Using This Shaper

Per policy:-

Needs to be applied on one policy and all the users connecting through that policy will share the mentioned amount of bandwidth.

For All Policies Using This Shaper:-

same object can be applied on multiple policies. and all the users connecting through all those policies together will take maximum that much of bandwidth .

2: Per IP:-

If you apply this on a policy , then each user connecting through that policy can take the mentioned bandwidth.

SO if you have mentioned 200 kbps , and applied in on LAN to WAN policy, lets say 20 users are currently connected through that policy, then each of them will take 200 Kbps max.
