BM-2010A / BM-2100 Bandwidth Manager User’s Manual
Chapter 1：Introduction
Business-critical and time-sensitive applications such as VoIP or transaction processing need guaranteed
bandwidth. PLANET’s new 10Mbps and 100Mbps Bandwidth Managers, the BM-2010A and BM-2100, offer
network administrators an easy yet powerful means to allocate network resources based on business
priorities, and to shape, analyze and control bandwidth usage. Expensive WAN resources are more
effectively utilized, avoiding the need for costly upgrades while still meeting business priorities.
The PLANET BM-2010A and BM-2100 are simple to install, with two 10/100Mbps Ethernet port for connecting
to the local network and the WAN router respectively. A 16x2 character LCD panel makes installation and
maintenance easier and more efficient. For bandwidth management, packets can be classified based on IP
address, IP subnet and TCP/UDP port number. The device has more than 20 of the most common protocols
such as H.323, Oracle, HTTP, FTP, etc. for ease of definition; the administrator can then define policies to
ensure committed and maximum bandwidth levels for inbound / outbound traffic in each class. The
administrator can also define three priority levels for each policy to ensure that high priority packets receive
the maximum available bandwidth. In addition, each policy can have a schedule defined for when the policy
is activated or inactivated in increments of 5 minutes.
The BM-2010A and BM-2100 also enable administrators to effectively measure traffic on the network and
provide comprehensive graphical reports about how bandwidth is being used. The administrator can view
each internal host’s inbound and outbound traffic or each network service’s inbound and outbound traffic. The
BM-2010A and BM-2100 also provide a graphical report for either the top ten internal hosts or services that
generate traffic. A free utility, Bandwidth Analyzer, is also provided to help you make further analysis of the
bandwidth usage. This reporting system helps administrators quickly understand and reallocate bandwidth
usage to an optimized level and make best use of the limited and expensive Wide-area network bandwidth.
For uninterrupted Internet access, the BM-2010A and BM-2100 also provide an in-box bypass function to
keep your Internet service available.

Chapter 2：Hardware Installation
2.1 Installation Requirements
Before installing the Bandwidth Manager, make sure your network meets the following requirements.
- Mechanical Requirements
The Bandwidth Manager is to be installed between your router and local area network. The Bandwidth
Manager can be placed on the table or rack. Locate the unit near the power outlet.
- Electrical Requirements
The Bandwidth Manager is powered from 100/240 VAC. A standard IEC connector is used for the power
cable. Follow all applicable electrical codes. Frame ground should be tied to a common grounding point
using #18AWG cable.
NOTE: The Bandwidth Manager is a power-required device, it means, the Bandwidth Manager will not
work until it is powered. If your networked PCs will need to transmit data all the time, please
consider use an UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your Bandwidth Manager. It will prevent
you from network data loss. In some area, installing a surge suppression device may also help to
protect your Bandwidth Manager from being damaged by unregulated surge or current to the
Bandwidth Manager.
- Network Requirements
In order for Bandwidth Manager to manage traffic, the traffic must pass through Bandwidth Manager at a
useful point in a network. In most situations, the bandwidth manager should be placed behind the Internet
connection router.
This deployment allows the network administers to control all bandwidth based on business priorities and
give business-critical and time-sensitive applications guarantee bandwidth and higher priority.
Business-critical applications can receive maximum performance while other less urgent traffic is still
available on remaining bandwidth. Bandwidth Manager also provides comprehensive reporting functions to
help monitor network and bandwidth usage and allow adjustment of the bandwidth management policies
accordingly.
The Bandwidth Manager provides two 10/100Base-TX port for connecting to WAN (external) and LAN
(internal) side. The network ports are both MDI (media dependent interface) port. Please use straight
Category 5 UTP Ethernet cable to connect the network port to switch, hub or other devices with MDI-X
interface and use cross-over cable to connect the network port to router, DSL/Cable modem or other
devices with MDI interface.
2.2 Install Bandwidth Manager to Your Network
- Choose an Installation Site
Select a suitable place on the network to install the Bandwidth Manager.
- Connect LAN Cables
Use standard LAN cables to connect your LAN side Switch or Hub to the LAN ports on Bandwidth Manager.
Both 10Base-T and 100Base-T connections can be used. The LAN and WAN port of bandwidth manager
support Auto-Negotiation to connect with best speed and duplex mode. The LAN port of Bandwidth
- 8 -
BM-2010A / BM-2100 Bandwidth Manager User’s Manual
Manager is MDI port. Thus, you can just use straight network to connect the LAN port to your switch or
hub.
- Connect WAN Cable
Connect the router, DSL or Cable modem to the WAN port on Bandwidth Manager. The LAN and WAN port
of Bandwidth Manager are both MDI port. Thus, in some case, you may need to use cross-over cable to
connect your router, DSL or cable modem.
