    Internet Shared Bandwidth:Manage Internet Shared Bandwidth quotas

    Last Updated:Dec 13, 2023

    Alibaba Cloud allows you to view and manage quotas of your Alibaba Cloud services. You can obtain usage information, apply for increases on quotas, and create alert rules for quotas. This topic describes the prerequisites and procedures for managing service quotas.

    Background information

    Quota Center allows you to manage the quotas of various Alibaba Cloud services in a centralized manner. Internet Shared Bandwidth and many other Alibaba Cloud services work with Quota Center. If you are using multiple Alibaba Cloud services and want to manage the quotas of all your cloud services in one console, you can use Quota Center.

    Alternatively, you can individually manage Internet Shared Bandwidth quotas by using the quota management feature provided in the Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) console.

    Prerequisites

    By default, only the Alibaba Cloud account is authorized to manage quotas in Quota Center. If you want to allow RAM users to manage quotas, you must first grant the RAM user the AliyunQuotasFullAccess permission. For more information, see Authorize a RAM user.
