Billing example
Assume that you create a 10 Gbps dedicated port and a 2 Gbps shared port in the China (Beijing) region at 13:00:00 on August 9, 2022, with a subscription duration of 1 month. You then manually renew them for another month before they expire. The port resource usage fee in the China (Beijing) region is calculated as follows:
Port resource usage fee: (CNY 4,400 + CNY 1,000)/month × 2 months = CNY 10,800.
