Scenarios
When you host a large number of applications on the cloud, if each EIP uses a dedicated bandwidth, a lot of bandwidths are required, which incurs high costs. If all EIPs share the same bandwidth, your network operation costs will be lowered and your system O&M as well as resource statistics will be simplified.
A shared bandwidth can be used only after being assigned.
Procedure
- Log in to the management console.
- Click
in the upper left corner and choose Network > Elastic IP. - In the navigation pane on the left, choose Elastic IP and Bandwidth > Shared Bandwidths.
- In the upper right corner, click Assign Shared Bandwidth. On the displayed page, configure parameters as prompted.
- Configure parameters as prompted.

Description
Example Value
Basic Configuration
Region
Regions are geographic areas that are physically isolated from each other. The networks inside different regions are not connected to each other, so resources cannot be shared across different regions. For lower network latency and faster access to your resources, select the region nearest to you.
N/A
Basic Configuration
Name
The name of the shared bandwidth.
Bandwidth-001
Basic Configuration
Enterprise Project
The enterprise project that the shared bandwidth belongs to.
An enterprise project facilitates project-level management and grouping of cloud resources and users. The name of the default project is default.
For details about creating and managing enterprise projects, see the Enterprise Management User Guide.
