Custom Bandwidth Throttling
Apache mina supports throttling at the user level but how do we do it?

It's done for each transfer, check:
org.apache.ftpserver.impl.IODataConnection.transferFromClient(FtpSession,
OutputStream)
org.apache.ftpserver.impl.IODataConnection.transferToClient(FtpSession,
InputStream)

I implemented a custom user class and set the upload and download rates for
the class. Then in the ftplet, when the required number of files were
uploaded say 10, on the 11th file i changed the upload rate in order to
throttle the upload for that particular user. This change is put in the list
of Authorities assigned to the user but this change is not reflected in the
FTPsession in use. The file gets uploaded with the initial upload rate. Is
it because of the check of authorites for that particular user are only done
during the authorization and not during the session?

Thanks a lot, I guess we will take a look at that and update the list on
our findings. Thanks once again!
Thanks

This is not supported out of the box, but you can use the APi and
implement your own User class to handle this case.

This is not supported out of the box, but you can use the APi and
implement your own User class to handle this case.

Hi Niklas,
Thanks, this is good info.
How about throttling on the fly based on some events, for e.g. a user has
already uploaded ten files in the current ftp session and we want to slow
him down on the 11th file onwards? Can we get that work in Apache ftp
server.
Setting the throttling levels at login is too early for us to decide it we
want to throttle the user or not.
Thanks
Sachin

Cool, then we know the context. FtpServer supports bandwidth
throttling of data transfers, not control connections. Data transfers
are not done using MINA (control connections uses MINA) and thus,
throttling is not done using MINA.
Back to the question: if using the file base user manager, you
configure the upload/download transfer rates as:
ftpserver.user.<username>.uploadrate=123
ftpserver.user.<username>.downloadrate=123
123 is in bytes per second. Our documentation in this area is lacking,
but you can find the documentation in the Javadocs for
PropertiesUserManager.

Assuming your talking about FtpServer since you're sending this email
to the FtpServer users list? If not, please send this email to
users@mina.apache.org.
