Managing Listener Tags

Scenarios

After a listener is created, you can view its tags or add, edit or delete a tag.

A tag is the identifier of a listener and consists of a key and a value. You can add up to 20 tags to a listener.

If a predefined tag has been created in TMS, you can select the corresponding tag key and value.

For details about predefined tags, see Predefined Tag Overview.

If you have configured tag policies for Global Accelerator, you need to add tags to listeners based on the tag policies. If you add a tag that does not comply with the tag policies, listeners may fail to be created. Contact the administrator to learn more about tag policies.
