How can I configure bandwidth management with limits per IP?
I'm having an issue with NSa3700.
I have submitted a ticket to the SonicWall support portal, but I haven't received a satisfactory response yet, so I'm posting here to ask for assistance.
1. I am using a 100Mbps Internet Leased Line (ILL) on Interface X1.
2. On X1, under BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT, I have set the maximum Ingress/Egress (kbps) to 100,000.
3. In the OBJECT section, I created a new profile named "CONTROL BW DOWNLOAD FOR ILL."
- Under GENERAL, I set:
+ Guaranteed BW = 100 Mbps
+ Maximum BW = 100 Mbps
+ Traffic Priority: 0 Realtime
+ Violation Action: Delay
- Under ELEMENTAL, I set:
+ Enabled Per-IP BW Management
+ Maximum BW: 5 Mbps
My objective is to limit each user in the LAN network to a download speed of 5Mbps to allocate bandwidth for other users.
4. In the POLICY section, the policy is set from LAN to WAN.
- Under Traffic Shaping, I enabled Ingress BWM.
However, when I tried to download a 90GB file from Google Drive, my download speed still reached 10Mbps.
Please help me ensure that the download speed is limited to 5Mbps.

It sounds like you followed the very vague KB article.
Have you tried changing any aspects of your bandwidth object and re-tested? Is this applied to an access rule that controls all of the internet traffic?
