Central Network Billing Example

Assume that you purchased a 150-Mbit/s global connection bandwidth for a cross-site connection between enterprise routers at 9:30:00 on April 18, 2023.

  • You increased the bandwidth to 200 Mbit/s at 11:00:00 on April 18, 2023.
  • You deleted the bandwidth at 11:00:00 on April 19, 2023.

Enterprise routers are free of charge, but the connections between enterprise routers are billed by the hour.

In this example, the unit price of the global connection bandwidth is $0.1 USD/Mbit/s per hour, and that of the connection is $0.06 USD/hour.

Figure 1 shows how the total price is calculated.

2023/04/18 9:30:00~2023/04/19 11:00:00

  • From 9:30:00 on April 18, 2023 to 11:00:00 on April 18, 2023 (1.5 hours)
  • From 11:00:00 on April 18, 2023 to 11:00:00 on April 19, 2023 (24 hours)
  • $0.1 USD x 150 Mbit/s x 1.5 hours = $22.5 USD
  • $0.1 USD x 200 Mbit/s x 24 hours = $480 USD

$22.5 USD + $480 USD = $502.5 USD

Enterprise router

From 9:30:00 on April 18, 2023 to 11:00:00 on April 19, 2023 (25.5 hours)

$0.06 USD x 1 x 25.5 hours = $1.53 USD

$1.53 USD
