IPv6 gateway billing

IPv6 Internet bandwidth uses pay-as-you-go billing with two methods: pay-by-bandwidth and pay-by-data-transfer.

Choose a billing method based on your required peak bandwidth and average bandwidth utilization.

Consider the average bandwidth utilization:

  • Below 20% utilization: use pay-by-data-transfer.

  • Above 35% utilization: use pay-by-bandwidth.

  • 20%–35% utilization: choose based on your operational experience.

IPv6 Internet bandwidth is billed separately from IPv4. IPv4 rates are listed in Internet bandwidth billing.

Pay-by-bandwidth

You are charged based on the peak bandwidth you specify and the billing duration.

  • Billing cycle: one day. Partial days are billed as full days.

  • The Internet bandwidth fee uses tiered pricing based on a 5 Mbps threshold.

    • If the peak bandwidth is from 1 Mbps to 5 Mbps:

      Bandwidth fee = (Unit price for bandwidth from 1 to 5 Mbps) (CNY/Mbps/day) × [Billing duration (hours) / 24] (days) × Peak bandwidth (Mbps)
    • If the peak bandwidth is greater than 5 Mbps:

      Bandwidth fee = [(Unit price for bandwidth from 1 to 5 Mbps) (CNY/Mbps/day) × 5 + (Unit price for bandwidth greater than 5 Mbps) (CNY/Mbps/day) × (n - 5)] × [Billing duration (hours) / 24] (days)

      Where n is the peak bandwidth.

  • You can change the peak bandwidth at any time. Within a billing cycle, you are billed at the highest peak bandwidth set during that cycle.

If the console shows different regions or prices, the console prevails.

Pay-by-data-transfer

Important
  • If you have activated Cloud Data Transfer (CDT), IPv6 Internet bandwidth fees are billed through CDT. CDT billing rules: Internet traffic and Cross-region traffic.

  • If you have not activated CDT, IPv6 Internet bandwidth is billed according to this document. To switch to CDT billing, go to the Cloud Data Transfer page.

In a billing cycle, Traffic fee = Unit price of traffic (CNY/GB) × Traffic usage (GB)
  • Billing and settlement cycle: one hour. Partial hours are billed as full hours.

  • Only outbound data transfer from your IPv6 address is billed. Inbound transfer is free.

  • You can use a Data Transfer Plan to offset pay-by-data-transfer IPv6 Internet bandwidth.

  • Changing the peak bandwidth does not affect the unit price. To avoid unexpected charges from programming errors or malicious traffic, set a bandwidth limit that matches your actual needs.

  • Regional data transfer fees:

    If the console shows different regions or prices, the console prevails.

Top-up instructions

IPv6 Internet bandwidth fee

When an IPv6 Internet bandwidth payment is overdue, the system sends a text message and email notification to the account owner.

  • If the overdue amount is within your service suspension protection quota, the Internet bandwidth service remains available.

    Alibaba Cloud provides the extended suspension-free benefit. When a pay-as-you-go resource is overdue, you can continue to use cloud services for a certain amount or duration. Normal fees apply during the extended period. For more information, see Extended Suspension-Free Benefit.

  • If the overdue amount exceeds your service suspension protection quota, the IPv6 Internet bandwidth is throttled to 1 Kbps. The bandwidth resource is not released.

  • If the bill remains unpaid seven days after throttling, the IPv6 Internet bandwidth resource is released. The IPv6 address itself is not released; its communication type reverts to private network.

IPv6 Internet bandwidth uses pay-as-you-go billing. If a payment is overdue, top up your account.

  • If you top up your account within the service suspension protection period, your services are not suspended.

  • If you top up within seven days after throttling, the system automatically pays the outstanding bill and immediately resumes IPv6 Internet bandwidth service.
