SoftPerfect Bandwidth Manager
SoftPerfect Bandwidth Manager is a traffic management and bandwidth monitoring application that primarily uses UDP port 8702 for communication between its management console and distributed agents. It allows network administrators to control usage, prioritize traffic, and enforce data quotas across a network in real-time..
SoftPerfect Bandwidth Manager is a versatile bandwidth management tool that operates over network communication, predominantly utilizing UDP port 8702. This port facilitates the connection between a centralized management console and network nodes where the software agent is installed. By transmitting control commands and traffic data over this port, administrators can effectively monitor, shape, and throttle network traffic to enforce policies.
The manager supports creating custom traffic rules based on IP address, port, application, or protocol, enabling fine-grained traffic shaping that prioritizes critical services while preventing network congestion. The communication over UDP helps ensure low-latency exchange of monitoring statistics and enforcement commands with minimal protocol overhead.
SoftPerfect Bandwidth Manager is commonly deployed in organizational LAN environments to optimize resource usage and guarantee service level agreements. It can also generate detailed bandwidth usage reports thanks to its continual communication with network endpoints over the configured port.
