Abstract

An example method of operation may include exchanging data between a client device and a server at a first transmission rate via at least one of a first channel and a second channel, monitoring an amount of data exchanged, comparing the amount of data exchanged to a first data amount threshold and a second data amount threshold for at least one time period, partially limiting subsequent transfers of data between the client device and the server when the first data amount threshold is reached in the at least one time period, and further partially limiting the subsequent transfers of data or ending transfer of data between the client device and the server when the second data amount threshold is reached in the at least one time period.
