Can My On-premises Gateway Have a Non-fixed Public IP Address?

No.

To connect your on-premises data center to Huawei Cloud through a VPN, your on-premises gateway must have a fixed public IP address. This public IP address can be statically configured, or translated through NAT in NAT traversal scenarios (your device is deployed behind a NAT gateway).

Common home broadband routers, Windows hosts providing VPN services (such as L2TP), and personal mobile terminals cannot connect to Huawei Cloud through a VPN.
