Advantages
- Flexibility
EIPs can be flexibly bound to or unbound from ECSs, BMSs, NAT gateways, load balancers, or virtual IP addresses. EIP bandwidths can be scaled according to service changes.
- Cost-effective
EIPs are available on a pay-per-use (billed by bandwidth or traffic) or yearly/monthly (billed by bandwidth) basis. You can use shared bandwidths to enjoy lower bandwidth costs. Generally, if you have frequent data transfer needs, a yearly/monthly subscription is more cost-effective.
- Ease of use
EIP binding, unbinding, and bandwidth adjustments take effect immediately.
