Step 3: Bind an EIP to a Load Balancer

After you configure a load balancer for your dedicated WAF instances, you need to unbind the EIP from the origin server and then bind this EIP to the load balancer you configured. The request traffic then goes to the dedicated WAF instance for attack detection first and then go to the origin server, ensuring the security, stability, and availability of the origin server.

Procedure

  1. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Elastic Load Balance under Network to go to the Load Balancers page.
  2. On the Elastic Load Balancers page, locate the row that contains the load balancer configured for the origin server. Then, in the Operation column, click More >Unbind IPv4/6 EIP.
  3. In the displayed dialog box, click Yes.
  4. On the Load Balancers page, locate the row that contains the load balancer configured for the dedicated WAF instance, click More in the Operation column, and select Bind IPv4/6 EIP.
  5. In the Bind EIP dialog box, select the EIP unbound in 3 and click OK.
