Relationship between Control Center components

Bandwidth limits express a limitation on the amount of bandwidth a user can use. This limit is expressed in terms of an upload limit (in bytes), a download limit (in bytes) and a duration.

The most common type of bandwidth limit is a simple rate limit: a limit of some number of bytes per second.

Bandwidth limits are used to create Bandwidth plans.

The bandwidth limits page allows you to add, edit, and delete bandwidth limits.
