What Are the Differences Between Billing the VPN Gateway EIP Bandwidth by Bandwidth and by Traffic?

The VPN gateway EIP bandwidth can be billed by bandwidth or by traffic.

The differences are as follows:
  • Billed by bandwidth: The billing cycle is 1 hour. The generated fee depends on the bandwidth.
  • Billed by traffic: The fee is calculated based on the outgoing traffic of a VPC generated every hour, which is not affected by the bandwidth.

If you select the more cost-effective yearly/monthly billing mode, VPN gateways can only be billed by bandwidth.
