The invention provides a method for handling the bandwidth allocation of a networking device. The networking device forwards a plurality of packets. A host attribute table is first searched according to a host attribute of the packets to obtain a host attribute table index of the packets. An application attribute table is then searched according to an application attribute of the packets to obtain an application attribute table index of the packets. A bandwidth profile table is then searched according to both the host attribute table index and the application attribute table index of the packets to obtain a bandwidth profile of the packets. Finally, the packets are limited to a specific bandwidth according to the bandwidth profile of the packets.
