How Do I Use Data Packages in FlexusL Instances?

The rules for using data packages in FlexusL instances are as follows:

  • A FlexusL instance provides a monthly data package. The traffic quota included in the data package is reset each month. Any unused portion of the data package cannot be rolled over to the next month.

    For example, if you purchase a FlexusL instance for three months at 10:00:00 on June 5, the monthly data package will be valid from 10:00:00 on June 5 to 00:00:00 on July 6. In the next month, the data package will be valid from 00:00:00 on July 6 to 00:00:00 on August 6. In the last-month, the data package will be valid from 00:00:00 on August 6 to 00:00:00 on September 6.

  • Only outbound traffic (originating from your server) will be billed. FlexusL instance data packages indicate the outbound data packages.
  • Service traffic is preferentially deducted from the data package. Any traffic usage in excess of the package is billed by traffic. The excess traffic is billed based on a tiered pricing model, and the unit price varies depending on regions. You can purchase shared data packages of the dynamic BGP type to save costs. For details, see Buying a Shared Data Package.
  • After you unsubscribe from or stop a FlexusL instance, no excess traffic will be generated.
