Configure alert rules for a VBR-to-VPC connection

You can configure alert rules for a VBR-to-VPC connection to receive alert notifications when the connection fails. This helps you quickly identify connection issues and prevent service disruptions.

1. Log on to the Cloud Monitor console.

2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Alert Service > Alert Rules.

3. On the Alert Rules page, click Create Alert Rule.

4. In the Create Alert Rule panel, configure the following parameters and click OK.

   Parameter	Description
   Product	The cloud service that CloudMonitor can manage. In this topic, select Express Connect - Peering Connection.
   Resource Range	The scope of resources to which the alert rule applies. Valid values: All Resources: The alert rule applies to all existing and new resources of the specified cloud service. Application Group: The alert rule applies to all existing and new resources within the specified application group. Instance: The alert rule applies only to the specified resources of the cloud service.
   Rule Description	Specify the condition of the alert rule. An alert is triggered when the condition of the alert rule is met. To specify a condition, perform the following operations: Click Add Rule. In the Set Rule Description panel, enter a Rule Name, and then set the rule conditions. Simple Metric: Select a metric, and then set a threshold and an alert level for the metric. Composite Metric: Select an alert level and configure a multi-metric alert description to set conditions for two or more metrics. Note If you create a multi-metric alert rule, the target resource must have data for each metric. An alert is triggered only after all conditions are met. For example, if a multi-metric alert rule includes a metric for the public network but the ECS host is not configured with a public IP address, the alert cannot be triggered. Expression: Select an alert level, and then configure an alert expression. Intelligent Threshold: For more information about intelligent thresholds, see Overview and Create an intelligent threshold alert rule. Note The intelligent threshold feature is in invitational preview. To use this feature, you must submit a ticket to request access. Click OK. Note For more information about how to set complex alert conditions using expressions, see Alert rule expressions.
