How to View Bandwidth Usage for VPS
VPS bandwidth is calculated by billing cycle, not calendar month.
You can check your current bandwidth on your VPS by doing the following :
- Log into your VZ Power Panel as noted in your welcome email; this can be accessed through https://your-server-IP:4643/
- Under Logs, Click Traffic Log in the menu to the left.
- To specify what traffic is displayed, you can change the specifics under the graph:
- Show traffic for:
- Period - Specify the period for which you wish to view your traffic statistics by selecting the start and end dates on the calendar.
- Day - Click the calendar and specify the exact date (i.e. day, month, and year) for which you wish to view your network traffic statistics.
- Month - Specify the month and year for which you wish to display your traffic statistics.
- Year - Specify the year for which you wish to display your traffic statistics.
- Traffic class :
- All - This option includes traffic from all accounting classes, even that which is not grouped into any class.
- Other - This option only includes traffic that does not belong to any specific accounting class.
- Specific - This option shows the classes created by you for specific needs. You can choose a single class to be displayed in the table. (You can also create a new class and view the details of existing Specific Traffic Classes by going to the hosting physical server and clicking the Network tab » Traffic subtab.)

- Byte - Displays traffic measurements in Bytes
- KB - Displays traffic measurements in Kilobytes
- MB - Displays traffic measurements in Megabytes
