How Does WAF Calculate Domain Name Quota Usage?

The number of domain names protected by WAF is calculated as follows:

  • The number of domains is the total number of top-level domain names (for example, example.com), single domain names/second-level domains (for example, www.example.com), and wildcard domain names (for example, *.example.com). For example, the standard edition WAF can protect up to 10 domain names. You can add one top-level domain name and nine subdomain names or wildcard domain names related to the top-level domain name.
  • If a domain name maps to different ports, each port is considered to represent a different domain name. For example, www.example.com:8080 and www.example.com:8081 are counted towards your quota as two distinct domain names.
  • You can upload as many certificates in WAF as the number of domain names that can be protected by your WAF instances in the same account. For example, if you purchase a standard edition WAF instance, which can protect 10 domain names, a dedicated WAF instance, which can protect 2,000 domain names, and a domain name expansion package (20 domain names), your WAF instances can protect 2,030 domain names total (2,000 + 20 +10). In this case, you can upload 2,030 certificates.
