What Is the Difference Between the Bandwidth Defined in Each Specification of a Dedicated Load Balancer and the Bandwidth of an EIP?

If you use a load balancer with fixed specifications to forward requests over the Internet, check whether the bandwidth defined in each specification and the bandwidth of the EIP meet your service requirements.

  • Bandwidth (Mbit/s) in each specification defines the maximum amount of inbound and outbound data transmitted over a dedicated load balancer.
  • The bandwidth of the EIP bound to a load balancer defines the maximum bandwidth for traffic required by the clients to access the load balancer.
