How to limit bandwidth usage in WHM This demo assumes you've already logged in to WebHost Manager. Now let's learn about setting bandwidth limits for specific hosting accounts in your WHM. Click the Account Functions link. Then click Limit Bandwidth Usage. A hosting account's bandwidth limit cannot be exceeded. When it's reached, the account will stop working until either: 1) The end of the month (When bandwidth usages are reset) or 2) The bandwidth limit is increased. Every account in WHM already has a bandwidth limit, as it would have been set when the account was created. Let's go ahead and check the bandwidth limit on one of the listed hosted accounts. Click the Limit button. Here we can see that the anotherdomain.com account has used 0 megabytes of bandwidth. It has a bandwidth limit of 100,000 megabytes. Let's go ahead and increase this account's bandwidth limit by typing in a new value here. Then click Change. That's it! The bandwidth limit for this account has been changed. Now click View Bandwidth Usage. From here you can see the bandwidth used by each individual account in WHM. You can see the modified bandwidth we just set here. The amount of bandwidth used is shown in this column. We can click here to see how much bandwidth each account used last month. Click Show Units in Megabytes, to show the bandwidth usages and limits in megabytes instead of gigabytes. Bandwidth limits and usages are now shown in megabytes. This is the end of the tutorial. You now know how to manage bandwidth limits for your hosting accounts and how to check current and past bandwidth usages.
Managing DNS zones in WHM Now let's learn how to manage our DNS zones. Keep in mind that you rarely (if ever) have to modify your DNS zones, since WHM does that for you automatically. You should only attempt to modify DNS zones if you know exactly what you are doing. Click the DNS functions link. Then click Add a DNS Zone. This is the screen where you can add new DNS zones, but we're not going to do that in this tutorial. Click Delete a DNS zone link. This is the screen where you can delete DNS zones. To delete the DNS zone for mynewtestdomain.com, select that account here. Then we would click this delete button, but we're not going to do this, as it would render the account useless. Now click the edit DNS zone link. We are now in the edit DNS zone screen. Select mynewtestdomain.com, then click Edit. This demo assumes you've already logged in to WebHost Manager. This is where you can edit the DNS zone properties of the mynewtestdomain.com account. All of these zones properties (or records) can be modified from here. But again, do not change anything unless you know exactly what you are doing. Click the Edit MX Entry link. Select mynewtestdomain.com, then click Edit. This is where you can specify a custom MX entry. You may want to do this for customers who want their email hosted elsewhere on another server. In those cases, you would enter the other server's IP address here and click Save. This is the end of the tutorial. You now know how to manage DNS zones in WHM. Remember that WHM automatically manages DNS zones for you, so you should rarely have to do it manually.
Managing MX entries in WHM This demo assumes you've already logged in to WebHost Manager. Now let's learn how to manage our MX entries. Click the DNS Functions link. Then click Edit MX entry.

You may want to do this for customers who want their email hosted elsewhere on another server. In those cases, you would enter the other server's IP address here and click save. We are not going to do this now, because we don't want to disturb the existing settings. This is the end of the tutorial. You now know how to manage MX entries in WHM. Remember that unless you want to point mail to a different mail server (not in this server), you never have to modify your MX settings.
