network.throttling.rate and vm.network.throttling.rate

Assumptions: network.throttling.rate is the rate set at the network. vm.network.throttling.rate is the rate set at the compute offering.
Goal: We are trying to setup things so that the VMs can communicate (Advanced Zone) at 1GB between VMs but when accessing the Internet the rate is limited.
Question: Is it safe to assume that that if we set the network.throttling.rate at the lower level (let's say 100MB) and the vm.network.throttling.rate at 1000MB, this will accomplish the goal? The default network offering is pre-set at 200MB, so do we need to create a custom network offering to fix this? Has anyone used multiple network offerings with a way to limit which accounts can see which offerings?

network.throttling.rate and vm.network.throttling.rate

I think you assumptions are valid. I believe network.throttling.rate controls the virtual router and vm.network.throttling.rate controls the guest instances, but it should be pretty easy to check. The default is just that, and can be overwritten by the offerings. You could either changes the defaults in global settings ( and re-launch and instances or virtual routers ) or creating a new offering with an override value defined.

I don't believe there is a way to limit which offerings are available to which accounts, but since I haven't looked into it, I could be mistaken.
