Service Bandwidth |
Prepaid by month or year |
Service bandwidth for the AAD server room to forward scrubbed traffic to origin servers.
NOTE:
If the AAD server room is outside HUAWEI CLOUD, it is recommended that the service bandwidth be greater than or equal to the egress bandwidth of the origin servers. |
Basic Protection Bandwidth |
Prepaid by month or year |
Basic bandwidth for defending against attacks. Traffic that does not exceed this bandwidth will be scrubbed by AAD without incurring additional fees. |
Elastic Protection Bandwidth |
Postpaid by day |
Maximum available bandwidth for defending against attacks. For details about the billing rules, see How Is the Elastic Bandwidth Charged?. |
Billing details for elastic protection bandwidth:
- Billing standard: It depends on the peak attack traffic on the day. If multiple attacks occur on a day, only the attack with the peak traffic counts.
- Postpaid: Elastic protection fees are generated based on the attack traffic peak. If there is no attack, no elastic protection fee is generated.
- Specifications adjustment: You can adjust the elastic protection bandwidth on the AAD console. Once adjusted, the new elastic protection bandwidth takes effect immediately.
- Free-to-use: If the elastic protection bandwidth is set to the same value as the basic protection bandwidth, you do not need to pay for elastic protection.
