How Do I Combine ELB and WAF?

After you connect your website to Web Application Firewall (WAF), you can configure access control on ELB to allow only traffic from the WAF-back-to-source IP addresses to origin servers. This prevents hackers from obtaining your origin server IP addresses and then bypassing WAF to attack origin servers. For details, see Web Application Firewall User Guide.
