Binding an EIP

Scenarios

You can assign an EIP and bind it to an ECS so that the ECS can access the public network.

Procedure

1. Log in to the ECS console and access the ECS list page.
2. In the ECS list, select the ECS that an EIP is to be bound and choose More > Manage Network > Bind EIP in the Operation column.
3. In the displayed dialog box, select an EIP.
   

   If no EIP is available in the current region, the EIP list is empty. In such a case, purchase an EIP and then bind it.

4. Click OK.

   After the EIP is bound, view it in the ECS list on the Elastic Cloud Server page.
