Monitoring bandwidth usage helps ensure your hosting resources are not overutilized, which can affect website performance.
WHM (Web Host Manager) enables you to monitor the bandwidth usage of all websites hosted on your server.
You can also check the overall bandwidth usage of your VPS through the SolusVM VPS management portal.
This guide explains how to check bandwidth usage from both WHM and SolusVM.
Check Bandwidth Usage from WHM
Step 1: Log in to WHM
Open your WHM login page in a browser and enter your credentials.
Step 2: Open the Bandwidth Usage Report
In the left menu, scroll to the Account Information section. Click View Bandwidth Usage.
Step 3: Review Bandwidth Statistics
A list of all cPanel accounts will appear, showing the current month’s bandwidth usage under the Xfer (in Megs) column.
To view data for other months, click the Last Month or Next Month links.
Check VPS Bandwidth Usage from SolusVM
