Increasing your network bandwidth helps decrease\ntransfer times, especially for large data sets.\n\nControl bandwidth usage for agent-driven transfers\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nBandwidth limits are helpful if you need to limit how much data\nStorage Transfer Service uses to transfer data. Using a bandwidth\nlimit helps ensure that:\n\n- Your network is not saturated as a result of using Storage Transfer Service.\n\n- Your organization's existing application behavior doesn't degrade during the\n transfer.\n\n- You don't cause a sudden price increase if you're on a network connection\n that charges by peak bandwidth usage.\n\nBandwidth limits are applied at an agent pool level and are divided by all\nagents in the pool. Bandwidth limits are enforced as an average value over one\nminute, so you may still experience short bursts that exceed the per-second\nlimit that you specify.\n\n### Set a bandwidth limit\n\nTo set a bandwidth limit:\n\n1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the **Agent pools** page.\n\n [Go to Agent pools](https://console.cloud.google.com/transfer/agent-pools)\n2. Select the agent pool to update.\n\n3. Click **Set bandwidth limit**.\n\n4. Enter the desired network limit in megabytes per second (MB/s) and click\n **Set limit**.\n\n### Edit a bandwidth limit\n\nTo edit an existing bandwidth limit:\n\n1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the **Agent pools** page.\n\n [Go to Agent pools](https://console.cloud.google.com/transfer/agent-pools)\n2. Select the agent pool to update.\n\n3. Click **Edit limit**.\n\n4. Enter the desired network limit in megabytes per second (MB/s) and click\n **Set limit**.\n\nTo remove a limit, click **Use all bandwidth**.\n\nOptions for obtaining more network bandwidth\n--------------------------------------------\n\nThere are several options for obtaining more network bandwidth for agent-driven\ntransfers:\n\n- **Peering with Google** ---Peering is where you directly interconnect with\n Google to support traffic exchange. We have\n [direct peering locations](/vpc/docs/edge-locations) world-wide. To learn\n about the benefits and our policies, see\n [Peering](https://peering.google.com/#/options/peering).\n\n- **Cloud Interconnect** ---Cloud Interconnect is similar to peering,\n but you'll use an interconnect to connect to Google. There are two types of\n [interconnects to choose from](/network-connectivity/docs/how-to/choose-product#cloud-interconnect):\n\n - **Dedicated Interconnect** --- You connect directly from\n your data center to a Google data center via a private, dedicated\n connection. For more information, see\n [Dedicated Interconnect overview](/network-connectivity/docs/interconnect/concepts/dedicated-overview).\n\n - **Partner Interconnect** ---You work with a service provider\n to establish a connection to a Google data center via a service\n partner's network. For more information, see\n [Partner Interconnect overview](/network-connectivity/docs/interconnect/concepts/partner-overview).\n\n- **Obtain bandwidth from your ISP**---Your internet service provider (ISP) may\n be able to offer more bandwidth for your needs. Consider contacting them to\n ask what options they have available."]]
