What Is the Quota?

Quotas are enforced for service resources on the platform to prevent unforeseen spikes in resource usage. Quotas can limit the number or amount of resources available to users. For example, the quota can limit the maximum number of EIPs that can be associated with an SNAT rule. You can apply for increasing quotas if necessary.

This section describes how to view the used NAT Gateway quota and the total NAT Gateway quota in a specified region.

How Do I View My Quotas?

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner and select the desired region and project.
3. In the upper right corner of the page, click .

   The Service Quota page is displayed.

4. View the used and total quota of each type of resources on the displayed page.

   If a quota cannot meet service requirements, apply for a higher quota.

How Do I Apply for a Higher Quota?
