What Are the Differences Between a Dedicated Bandwidth and a Shared Bandwidth?
A dedicated bandwidth can only be used by one EIP that is bound to one cloud resource, such as an ECS, a NAT gateway, or a load balancer.
A shared bandwidth can be shared by multiple pay-per-use EIPs. Adding an EIP to or removing an EIP from a shared bandwidth does not affect your services.
A dedicated bandwidth cannot be changed to a shared bandwidth or the other way around. You can purchase a shared bandwidth for your pay-per-use EIPs.
- After you add an EIP to a shared bandwidth, the EIP will use the shared bandwidth.
- After you remove an EIP from a shared bandwidth, the EIP will use the dedicated bandwidth.
