| Configuring the WSM using Device Manager |
Cookie-based BWM enables Web site managers to prevent network abuse by bandwidth-hogging users. Bandwidth can be allocated by type of user or other user-specific information available in the cookie. Cookie-based bandwidth management empowers service providers to create tiered services. For example, Web site managers can classify users as first class, business class, and coach and allocate a larger share of the bandwidth for preferred classes.
Note:
Cookie-based BWM does not apply to cookie-based persistency or cookie passive/active mode applications.
