Binding an EIP to a NAT gateway
After an EIP has been bound to a NAT gateway, ECSs associated with this gateway can share the EIP to access the Internet or provide services accessible from the Internet.
You can bind an EIP to a NAT gateway by configuring SNAT and DNAT rules for the gateway. For details, see Using SNAT to Access the Internet and Using DNAT to Provide Services Accessible from the Internet.
Binding an EIP to a load balancer
After an EIP is bound to a load balancer, the load balancer can receive requests over the Internet. For details, see Binding or Unbinding an EIP.
