Assigning a Shared Bandwidth

Function

This API is used to assign a shared bandwidth.

URI

POST /v2.0/{project_id}/bandwidths

Table 1 describes the parameters.

**Table 1** Parameter description
Name	Mandatory	Description
project_id	Yes	Specifies the project ID. For details about how to obtain a project ID, see Obtaining a Project ID.

Request Message

Request parameter

**Table 2** Request parameter
Name	Mandatory	Type	Description
bandwidth	Yes	bandwidth object	Specifies the bandwidth objects. For details, see Table 3.

**Table 3** Description of the **bandwidth** field
Name	Mandatory	Type	Description
name	Yes	String	Specifies the bandwidth name. The value can contain 1 to 64 characters, including letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).
size	Yes	Integer	Specifies the bandwidth size. The shared bandwidth has a minimum limit, which may vary depending on sites. The default minimum value is 5 Mbit/s. The value ranges from 1 Mbit/s to 1000 Mbit/s by default. (The specific range may vary depending on the configuration in each region. You can see the available bandwidth range on the management console.) If a decimal fraction (for example 10.2) or a character string (for example "10") is specified, the specified value will be automatically converted to an integer. The minimum increment for bandwidth adjustment varies depending on the bandwidth range. The details are as follows: The minimum increment is 1 Mbit/s if the allowed bandwidth ranges from 0 Mbit/s to 300 Mbit/s (with 300 Mbit/s included). The minimum increment is 50 Mbit/s if the allowed bandwidth ranges from 300 Mbit/s to 1000 Mbit/s (with 1000 Mbit/s included). The minimum increment is 500 Mbit/s if the allowed bandwidth is greater than 1000 Mbit/s.
charge_mode	No	String	Specifies whether the bandwidth is billed by traffic or by bandwidth size. Possible values can be bandwidth (billed by bandwidth) and traffic (billed by traffic). If the value is left blank, value traffic is used.

Example request

POST https://{Endpoint}/v2.0/{project_id}/bandwidths

{
    "bandwidth": {
        "name": "bandwidth123",
        "size": 10

Response Message

Response parameter

**Table 4** Response parameter
Name	Type	Description
bandwidth	bandwidth object	Specifies the bandwidth objects. For details, see Table 5.

**Table 5** Description of the **bandwidth** field
Name	Type	Description
name	String	Specifies the bandwidth name. The value can contain 1 to 64 characters, including letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).
size	Integer	Specifies the bandwidth size. The value ranges from 1 Mbit/s to 1000 Mbit/s by default. (The specific range may vary depending on the configuration in each region. You can see the available bandwidth range on the management console.)
id	String	Specifies the bandwidth ID, which uniquely identifies the bandwidth.
share_type	String	Specifies whether the bandwidth is shared or dedicated. The value can be PER or WHOLE. WHOLE: Shared bandwidth PER: Dedicated bandwidth
publicip_info	Array of publicip_info objects	Specifies information about the EIP that uses the bandwidth. For details, see Table 6. The bandwidth, whose type is WHOLE, can be used by multiple EIPs. The bandwidth, whose type is PER, can be used by only one EIP.
tenant_id	String	Specifies the project ID.
bandwidth_type	String	Specifies the bandwidth type. The default value for the shared bandwidth is share.
charge_mode	String	Specifies whether the bandwidth is billed by traffic or by bandwidth size. Possible values can be bandwidth (billed by bandwidth) and traffic (billed by traffic). If the value is an empty character string or no value is specified, value traffic is used.
status	String	Specifies the bandwidth status. Possible values are as follows: FREEZED (Frozen) NORMAL (Normal)

**Table 6** **publicip_info** object
Name	Type	Description
publicip_id	String	Specifies the ID of the EIP that uses the bandwidth.
publicip_address	String	Specifies the obtained EIP if only IPv4 EIPs are available.
publicip_type	String	Specifies the EIP type. Constraints: The configured value must be supported by the system. publicip_id is an IPv4 port. If publicip_type is not specified, the default value is 5_bgp.
