Enable traffic rerouting to an on-demand instance

This topic describes how to enable traffic rerouting to an on-demand Anti-DDoS Origin instance in the Anti-DDoS console.

1. Log on to the Anti-DDoS console.
2. In the top navigation bar, select the region where your on-demand Anti-DDoS Origin instance resides.
3. On the Assets page, click the Others tab.
   Note The Others tab shows the IP addresses of all your on-demand Anti-DDoS Origin instances. If you have not purchased on-demand instances, the Others tab contains no IP addresses.
4. Find the IP address of your on-demand instance and click Start Redirection in the Operation column. In the message that appears, click OK.

Result

If traffic rerouting is enabled, the IP address of your on-demand instance is in the Redirecting state. This indicates that the system is rerouting the traffic of protected assets to mitigate DDoS attacks. If you want to stop rerouting the traffic, click Pause Redirection in the Operation column.

Note After you click Pause Redirection, the system no longer reroutes the traffic of protected assets to your on-demand instance and does not mitigate DDoS attacks for your assets.
