Anti-DDoS:View the Overview page in the Traffic Security console

Last Updated:Dec 12, 2023

The Overview page of Traffic Security provides insight into the protection status and attack trends of your assets, hotspot assets, and DDoS attack events of assets that are assigned public IP addresses. In this topic, assets that are assigned public IP addresses are referred to as assets for short. This helps you configure Anti-DDoS services to improve protection capabilities for your assets. This topic describes how to view the information that is displayed on the Overview page of the Traffic Security console.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Traffic Security console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Overview.

  3. On the Overview page, view the information.

    Note

    If your Alibaba Cloud account has the multi-account management feature enabled and is a management account, the Overview page displays only the information about the assets that belong to the management account. The Overview page does not display the information about the assets that belong to members.

    • Asset Security Status

      This section displays the overall situation of the attacks on your assets. The following table describes the details.

      Parameter

      Description

      Attacked Assets (Real-time)

      The number of assets that are under DDoS attacks.

      The value of this parameter is calculated based on the following formula: Value of the Attacked Assets (Real-time) parameter = Value of the Assets in Blackhole Filtering (Real-time) parameter + Value of the Assets in Scrubbing (Real-time) parameter.

      Assets in Blackhole Filtering (Real-time)

      The number of assets on which blackhole filtering is triggered.

      Assets in Scrubbing (Real-time)

      The number of assets on which traffic scrubbing is triggered.

      Attack Trend Within 30 Days

      The DDoS attack trends of your assets within the last 30 days.

      Attacked Assets Within 30 Days

      The number of DDoS attacks received by your assets within the last 30 days.

      Total Blackhole Filtering Duration Within 30 Days

      The duration within which blackhole filtering is triggered for your assets within the last 30 days.

      Proportion of Blackhole Filtering Duration Within 30 Days

      The value of this parameter is calculated based on the following formula: Value of the Proportion of Blackhole Filtering Duration Within 30 Days parameter = Value of the Total Blackhole Filtering Duration Within 30 Days parameter/30.

      If blackhole filtering is triggered for your assets or your service is severely affected due to the duration within which blackhole filtering is triggered within the last 30 days, you can click Handle Now to deploy Anti-DDoS services.
