After you purchase an Anti-DDoS Origin Enterprise instance, you can add the IP addresses of your Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances, Server Load Balancer (SLB) instances, Web Application Firewall (WAF) instances, or your elastic IP addresses (EIPs) to Anti-DDoS Origin Enterprise for protection.

Prerequisites

An Anti-DDoS Origin Enterprise instance is purchased. For more information, see Purchase an Anti-DDoS Origin Enterprise instance.
Note Anti-DDoS Origin Enterprise instances must reside in the same region as the assets that you want to protect. The assets are cloud resources such as Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances, Server Load Balancer (SLB) instances, Web Application Firewall (WAF) instances, and elastic IP addresses (EIPs).

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Traffic Security console.
  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Network Security > Anti-DDoS Origin > Manage Instances.
  3. In the top navigation bar, select the resource group and region of your instance.
  4. On the Manage Instances page, find the Anti-DDoS Origin Enterprise instance. In the Actions column, click Add Protected Asset.
    Note Add Protected Asset appears only if no IP addresses of cloud services are added to the instance. If the IP address of a cloud service is added to the instance, you can click Manage in the Actions column. On the Instances page, click Add Protected Asset.
