How Do I Determine Whether I Am Accessing OBS over an Intranet?

Suppose you have an ECS and an OBS bucket (named example-bucket) in the CN-Hong Kong region.

To check whether you are using an intranet for access, do as follows:

On the ECS, ping the global domain name of the bucket you are accessing. If the IP address that responds is in the IP address range starting with 100 or 214, you are accessing the bucket from the ECS over a local intranet connection.

The global domain name of an OBS bucket is in the Bucket name.obs.myhuaweicloud.com format.

For example, you could ping example-bucket.obs.myhuaweicloud.com on the ECS.
