Hello,

Please realise this is not a “Support” forum, this is an A10 Community forum, where A10 users and A10 employees heal each other. Although sometimes support like questions are being answered, for real support questions the best way is to call or e-mail our support desk.

In this case I think it use very important to find out what kind of traffic is causing the user to exceed it’s quota. And if this is maybe malicious traffic.

Contact support by e-mail: [support@a10networks.com](mailto:support@a10networks.com) Or bij phone, local support numbers can be found here: [Contact A10](https://www.a10networks.com/company/contact-us)

Greetings,

Diederik
