Last updated: 2023-12-29 14:25:46

This document describes how to confirm your CLB configuration prior to accessing CLB WAF.
Directions
By associating domain names with a CLB listener, CLB WAF checks and blocks HTTP or HTTPS traffic passing through the listener. Before accessing CLB WAF, make sure that your website business has been deployed on Tencent Cloud and used Tencent Cloud CLB (previously Application Load Balancer) over the public network.
Note: 
We recommend using SaaS WAF for website business not deployed on Tencent Cloud.
To ensure traffic forwarding, it is necessary to configure your CLB instance and associating your domain name with a listener. For more details, see Configuring an HTTP Listener and Configuring an HTTPS Listener.
