This document describes how to create and delete a protection. A protection is the basic unit that associates protected resources and carries protection levels and protection policies. After subscribing to a plan, you must first create a protection before you can associate the resources that need protection.
Prerequisites
Configuration Guide
1. Log in to the Anti-DDoS console, select Protections in the left sidebar, and go to the Protections page.
2. Click Create Protection to go to the Create Protection wizard.
3. In Step 1: Fill in Basic Information, configure the following parameters and click Next.
Configuration Item | Configuration Description |
Protection name | Customize the protection name. You can enter up to 60 characters. |
Protection level | The protection level of the protection defaults to Advanced Protection. Available protection level tiers are determined by the purchased plan. For details, see DDoS Protection Capacity Description. |
Add protection tag (optional) | Add Tags to protections for permission management by category. Tags configured here apply only to DDoS Defender product and do not affect tag configurations of protected resources. |
4. After Step 1 is completed, the protection is created successfully. You can view the newly created protection in the protection list.
Note:
Step 2: Associate Protected Resources and Step 3: Configure L3/4 DDoS Protection Policies in the wizard are optional. You can skip them after creating a protection and complete them later in the console as needed. To continue configuring them in the wizard, refer to the subsequent steps below.
