Feature

After a shared data package takes effect, EIPs billed by traffic will use the shared data package first. After the shared data package is used up, the EIPs will be billed by traffic on a pay-per-use basis.

A shared data package is more cost-effective than billing by traffic on the yearly/monthly basis.

Multiple pay-per-use EIPs can be added to a shared bandwidth.

Shared bandwidth can be billed by bandwidth or by 95th percentile bandwidth (enhanced).

Usage method

A shared data package takes effect immediately after being purchased and you do not need to perform any configurations.

After purchasing a shared bandwidth, you need to add EIPs to the shared bandwidth.
