Overview
To improve the disaster recovery capability against out-of-control emergencies in Anti-DDoS lines, Anti-DDoS Advanced instances can be connected via CNAME since May 13, 2022. CNAME can be resolved to different Anti-DDoS Advanced instance IPs. When the primary instance IP fails (which is not caused by blocking), CNAME will be resolved to the secondary instance IP to ensure service continuity.
Adjustments
Anti-DDoS Advanced instances can be connected via CNAME starting from May 13, 2022.
If you had already purchased or used Anti-DDoS Advanced instances before May 13, 2022, the IP addresses of the instances will still be retained to serve your business. However, to improve your business stability, you're recommended to change the DNS resolution target to the assigned CNAME as soon as possible.
If your Anti-DDoS Advanced instances were purchased after May 13, 2022, please change the DNS resolution target to the assigned CNAME.
Note:
Note that these updates are not available for non-BGP resources.
Reminders
The DNS resolution target of the access source should be changed to the assigned CNAME as soon as possible. The CNAME will then be resolved to an instance IP that can forward cleansed traffic back to the real server. (These updates will not have any effect on existing users.)
Note:
Anti-DDoS Advanced instance IPs may change. To avoid DNS resolution failure, modify your DNS address to the assigned CNAME.
