Upgrading Instance Specifications

Scenarios

This section describes how to modify the basic protection bandwidth, elastic protection bandwidth, and service bandwidth for an AAD instance.

The number of protected domain names can be upgraded for website access instances, and the number of forwarding rules can be upgraded for IP access instances.

• If a customer purchases a non-BGP triple-line instance (not for sale currently), the specifications cannot be upgraded. To change the elastic bandwidth, submit a work order for technical support.
• Only the service bandwidth and elastic protection bandwidth can be lowered.
• The lines cannot be changed during the upgrade.
• Expired instances do not support specifications upgrades.
• Frozen instances do not support specifications upgrades.

Prerequisites

You have the related permissions.

Ensure that the account used for upgrading the specifications of AAD instances has both the CAD Administrator and BSS Administrator roles or has the Tenant Administrator role.

• BSS Administrator: has all permissions on account center, billing center, and resource center. It is a project-level role, which must be assigned in the same project.
• Tenant Administrator: has all permissions on all services except on IAM.

Fees Description

Modifying specifications will lead to fee changes. For details, see Pricing of a Changed Specification.
