This function is only supported when the L4 proxy is enabled for Exclusive DDoS protection. The default platform protection and L7 site Exclusive DDoS protection do not support configuration.

Comparison items
Loose
The cleaning strategy is relatively loose, and only attack packets with clear attack features are protected. It is suggested to enable when false interception is suspected, and complex attacks may penetrate.
Moderate (default)
The cleaning strategy adapts to the vast majority of businesses and can effectively protect against common attacks. DDoS protection defaults to moderate mode.
Strict
The cleaning strategy is relatively strict, and it is recommended to use when attack penetration occurs in normal mode.

Adjust protection level
If your business has the following two situations, it is recommended that you adjust the protection level:
During the current business operation, if there is false interception in the Log analytics, in order to ensure the availability of the business, you can reduce the protection strategy level to Loose;
During the current business operation, if there is still attack penetration to the origin under the Moderate protection level, it is recommended that you increase the protection level to Strict.
You can follow the steps below to adjust:
