Upgrades a subscription NAT gateway.

Description

Note
  • You cannot call this operation to downgrade a NAT gateway. You can downgrade a NAT gateway only in the console.
  • When you call this operation to upgrade a subscription NAT gateway, an order is generated. After you complete the payment in the order center, the NAT gateway is upgraded.

ModifyNatGatewaySpec is an asynchronous operation. After you make a request, the ID of the request is returned but the specified NAT gateway is not modified. The system modifies the NAT gateway in the background. You can call the DescribeNatGateways operation to query the state of a NAT gateway.

  • Modifying: indicates that the system is modifying the NAT gateway. You can only query the state of the NAT gateway, but cannot perform other operations.
  • Available: indicates that the NAT gateway is modified.

NAT gateways offer different specifications. The specification of a NAT gateway determines its SNAT performance, such as the maximum number of connections and the number of new connections per second. However, the specification does not affect the data throughput. The following table describes the correlations between different specifications of NAT gateways and SNAT performance metrics.

Specification

Number of maximum connections

Number of new connections per second

Small

10,000

1,000

Middle

50,000

5,000

Large

200,000

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.
