Can WAF, Advanced Anti-DDoS, and CFW Be Deployed Together?

Yes. WAF has three modes: exclusive mode, ELB mode, and cloud mode. The traffic trend varies depending on the mode. The details are as follows:
  • Exclusive mode/ELB mode: Internet -> Advanced Anti-DDoS -> CFW -> WAF (dedicated mode/ELB mode) -> Origin server
  • Cloud mode: Internet -> Advanced Anti-DDoS -> WAF (cloud mode) -> CFW -> Origin server
  • If you have purchased Advanced Anti-DDoS or WAF in cloud mode, exercise caution when configuring traffic blocking rules. You are advised to configure traffic permitting rules or whitelists.
  • If you have purchased WAF in dedicated or ELB mode, configure it based on service requirements.
