Veritas NetBackup™ Administrator's Guide, Volume I

Throttle Bandwidth properties

Use the Throttle Bandwidth properties to specify a limit for the network bandwidth or transfer rate that NetBackup clients use on a network. The actual limiting occurs on the client side of the backup connection. These properties limit only backups. Restores are unaffected. The default is that the bandwidth is not limited.

The Throttle Bandwidth properties are similar to the Bandwidth host properties, but offer greater flexibility in IPv6 environments.
