- The schedule is repeating itself. It has the seven weekdays and at the end of the week, the schedule repeats.

- An entry in the schedule is a designated limit the agent shall not exceed. Clear time stretches on a day designate no limitation, allowing the agent to use as much bandwidth as needed.

- The schedule doesn't store a timezone. When you set a limit that starts for instance at 9am, then that means agent-local time. You can see what timezone is configured for the agent. Pay close attention, the agent's timezone may be different from the timezone of your site where the agent is deployed.

The dialog requires you to set a start and an end-time during which you want to apply an uplink limit for the agent. You can then pick on which days of the week you like to apply your new limit. Select all weekdays during which you like to apply the same limit. You then need to specify the limit in Mbps (Megabits per second). Overlapping times aren't allowed. Any limit you set, applies at the displayed time in the agent's timezone. You can find the agent's timezone displayed at the top of the bandwidth management window. You may need to offset your schedule or adjust the agent's timezone.

> The bandwidth limit you set limits the *migration data stream* the agent will establish to your target storage in Azure. However, in addition to this data stream, there is control plane traffic from the agent to Azure. Control messages, progress telemetry, and copy logs generally require only a small amount of bandwidth. To ensure proper functionality of the agent throughout your migration, the control plane of the agent is not governed by the limit schedule you set. In an extreme case the agent may exceed the limits you defined by a small amount.

> Schedules are stored free of a timezone. That enables them to be reused on other agents. A scheduled limit will be in effect during this time in whatever the agent's timezone is. You need to ensure that you offset your bandwidth management schedule if the agent's timezone is different to the one used in the location you've deployed the agent in. For example, if the agent's timezone is UTC but your agent is actually deployed in the Pacific timezone (PST), you need to offset your schedule by -7 hours or adjust your agent's timezone to the correct one for the location. Alternatively, you can adjust the agent's timezone to the correct one for the location. Doing this removes the need to offset your schedule and also enables your schedule to automatically adjust to Daylight Savings, should your timezone observe that.
