Accessing a Black-holed Server Through ECS

Application Scenarios

When your server is under a traffic flooding attack, a black hole will be triggered to block all accesses from the Internet. You can connect to a black-holed server through an Elastic Cloud Server (ECS).

Once you have connected your ECS to a server in the black hole state, you can transfer files to the server and can make whatever configuration changes are necessary.

Limitations and Constraints

Ensure the ECS can be accessed and in the same region as the black-holed server.
