Impact of Default Bandwidth Limit:
The default bandwidth limit defined in WHM will automatically apply to all newly created hosting packages. Any account created using these packages will inherit this bandwidth limit.

If the limit is set too low, websites may experience restricted traffic or temporary suspension once the bandwidth is exceeded. Setting an appropriate limit helps manage server resources effectively and prevents excessive bandwidth usage.

You can set up WHM in such a way that the default bandwidth capacity for new packages is defined. We hope you were able to understand this. Reach out to our support staff for any assistance.
