Changing the Network Configurations of a Shared Load Balancer

You can change the network configurations of a shared load balancer as needed.

Binding and Unbinding an EIP

You can bind or unbind an IPv4 EIP to or from a shared load balancer as required.

Load balancers without IPv4 EIPs cannot route requests over the public IPv4 network.

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. In the upper left corner of the page, click and select the desired region and project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner to display Service List and choose Networking > Elastic Load Balance.
  4. On the Load Balancers page, locate the load balancer and click More in the Operation column.
    1. Binding an IPv4 EIP
      1. Click Bind IPv4 EIP.
      2. In the Bind IPv4 EIP dialog box, select the EIP you want to bind to the load balancer and click OK.
    2. Unbinding an IPv4 EIP
      1. Click Unbind IPv4 EIP.
      2. In the displayed dialog box, confirm the IPv4 EIP that you want to unbind and click OK.

Modifying the Bandwidth

If you set the Network Type of a load balancer to Public IPv4 network, the load balancer can route requests over the Internet and you can modify the bandwidth used by the EIP bound to the load balancer as required. When you modify the bandwidth, traffic routing will not be interrupted.

The EIP bandwidth defines the limit for clients to access the load balancer.

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. In the upper left corner of the page, click and select the desired region and project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner to display Service List and choose Networking > Elastic Load Balance.
  4. On the Load Balancers page, locate the load balancer and click More in the Operation column.
  5. Click Modify IPv4 Bandwidth.
  6. In the New Configuration area, modify the billing option and bandwidth and click Next.

    You can select the bandwidth defined by the system or customize a bandwidth. The bandwidth ranges from 1 Mbit/s to 2,000 Mbit/s.

  7. Confirm the new bandwidth and click Submit.

    After you change the billing option and bandwidth, the price will be recalculated accordingly.
