Subnet-Level Policies

Under a subnet object, you can create subnet-level user policies. A particular user may have special requirements for specific subnets. To meet these requirements, you can create a user policy under that subnet object. Only those attributes that are different from the Enterprise policies must be configured.

It is recommended that first the default Unauthenticated and Authenticated user policies in the subnet container are modified to meet the needs of most users sending data on the subnet. If a user still has special resource requirements for that subnet, exception policies can be created. For example, to override the aggregate bandwidth for a particular user, you can create a subnet policy for the user with only the aggregate bandwidth value configured. All other values necessary for the bandwidth reservation come from one of the default enterprise policies.
