Monthly Bandwidth Limits
Hi Guys
I would like to know how do you configure monthly bandwidth limits for
guest VMs? I know how to set transfer bandwidth limits from 1000 mbps to
200 Mbps for example, however, how do I configure a VM to not go over
lets say 500 GB of up and down bandwidth limits each month? Sorry for
the noob question, still quite new to KVM & Cloudstack and documentation
does not seem to mention this, assuming such a feature exists.

Cloudstack does not support this currently.
You can ask ChatGPT to develop a feature. :)
You can implement this separately, either by using cloud-usage, or
external tools for traffic accounting.

It seems ChatGBT somewhat has the answer for me, but it seems no such
setting exists, at least not for a KVM setup. See attached screenshot
for ChatGBT's reply. Any ideas?
