Release a public endpoint when you no longer need external network access to a Tair (Redis OSS-compatible) instance — for example, after testing is complete or when restricting the instance to internal connections only.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure that you have:
A public endpoint allocated to the instance (see Apply for a public endpoint for an instance)
Release the public endpoint
The operations mentioned in this section may cause the public endpoint to become unavailable. As a result, your client can no longer connect to the instance by using the public endpoint. Proceed with caution.
Log on to the console and go to the Instances page. In the top navigation bar, select the region where the instance resides. Find the instance and click its ID.
In the Connection Information section of the Instance Information page, click Release Endpoint next to Internet Access.
In the panel that appears, click OK.
After releasing the endpoint, we recommend that you delete the corresponding public IP address from the instance's whitelist to ensure data security. For details, see Configure whitelists.
FAQ
Can I restore public access after releasing the endpoint?
Yes. Apply for a new public endpoint by following the steps in Apply for a public endpoint for an instance.
Do I need to update the whitelist after releasing the endpoint?
Yes. We recommend that you delete the public IP address from the instance's whitelist to ensure data security. For details, see Configure whitelists.
