How to view bandwidth usage for VPS

To view your bandwidth usage on your VPS, login to your Virtuozzo Power Panel.

VPS bandwidth is calculated by billing cycle, not calendar month.

Here are instructions on checking the current bandwidth usage for a VPS container:

  1. Login to your root VZ on your VPS server (where the container exists).
  2. Click on the server hostname under Infrastructure on the left menu.
  3. Click the Containers tab and click the container name you want to view.
  4. Click on the Network tab for the container and then click the sub-tab Traffic Usage.
  5. Change Show Traffic For to "Period" and enter the start and end dates of the billing cycle in question (be sure the end date is the day before the next billing renewal date).
  6. Leave Traffic Class as "All" and change Traffic Unit to "GB".
  7. Click the Update button .
  8. You will then see the bandwidth usage for both incoming and outgoing connections. Add these together and you have the total bandwidth usage for the billing cycle in question.

If a container is suspended for being over bandwidth, you will either need to upgrade to a higher level package or wait until the next billing cycle for the bandwidth usage to reset.
