Network transfer monitoring

I am trying to better understand the numbers related to monitoring network outbound transfers.

My account is "basic" and provides for 1 terabyte total outbound, and 1000 mbps maximum bandwidth.

I also have a default warning set if 10 mbps is exceeded over the course of a 2-hour period.

Now, if I have a service that transfers 1MB per client request, and a web client only makes at most 10 requests per minute (one per 6 seconds), then everything is fine. That comes to a rate of 1 mb per 6 seconds, or 1/6 mbps, yes?

However, I would likely receive a warning if the client were able to make 10 requests per second, or in an alternate scenario, 10 clients making 1 request per second.

Am I getting this right?

Also, what does the warning consist of? Is it an email sent to my user account?

I may be confirming the obvious here, but working through things the first time with computer systems is fraught with unexpected unknowns, and a confirmation would be very reassuring.

Thanks!
