Viewing Protection Details

Scenarios

After your services are connected to AAD, you can view the DDoS and CC protection details of different lines in an AAD instance on the dashboard to learn about the current network security state.

On the Dashboard page, you can view the following protection details:
  • DDoS Attack Protection

    The Dashboard page gives an overview of the peak ingress traffic, peak attack traffic, and number of DDoS attacks, and shows the attack type distribution, DDoS attack events, and top 5 attack types scrubbed on two tab pages Traffic and Packet Rate.

  • CC Attack Protection

    The Dashboard page gives an overview of number of requests and attacks, attack type distribution, and top 5 attacked source IP addresses.

Precautions

  • The protection details cannot be downloaded.
  • On the Dashboard page, you can view the following protection details of the following time ranges:
    • DDoS Attack Protection

      You can select an AAD instance and a line to view the DDoS protection details of last 24 hours, last 3 days, last 7 days, last 30 days, or a custom period (maximum of last 90 days).

    • CC Attack Protection

      You can select a specific domain name or all domain names from the domain name drop-down list to view the CC protection details of yesterday, today, last 3 days, last 7 days, or last 30 days.
