3.7 Procedure for controlling the network bandwidth used for distribution
By setting a maximum transfer speed, you can ensure that the distribution of software and files from the management server to managed computers does not monopolize the network bandwidth.
To control a network bandwidth:
-
Log on to the OS as a user with administrator permissions.
-
From the Windows Start menu, select All Programs, JP1_IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager, Tools, and then Setup.
-
In the Setup window, click the Next button.
-
In the Select a Setup view, select Settings Modification, and then click the Next button.
-
Click the Next button until the Other Settings view opens.
-
Select Control network bandwidth from management server, enter a value in Maximum transmission speed, and then click the Next button.
-
In the Confirm Setup Settings view, check the settings, and then click the Next button.
-
In the Setup for Distribution by Using Remote Install Manager view, click the OK button.
The setup process begins, and a dialog box appears indicating that setup is in progress. When setup has finished, the Setup Complete view appears.
If a service needs to be stopped, a dialog box appears asking permission to do so. Click the OK button to stop the service.
-
In the Setup Complete view, click the OK button.
You can now control the network bandwidth.
