Binding a Global Internet Gateway to a Global EIP

Scenarios

This section describes how to bind a global internet gateway to a global EIP. When you bind a global internet gateway to a global EIP of an ECS, the system automatically lists the global internet gateway of the VPC that the ECS belongs to, if there is one.

Prerequisites

A global internet gateway has been created for the VPC of the ECS. If there is no global internet gateway, create one by referring to Creating a Global Internet Gateway.

Procedure

1. Go to the global EIP list page.
2. In the global EIP list, search for or locate the target global EIP.
3. Locate the target global EIP, and click Bind Instance in the Progress column.

   The page for binding an instance is displayed.

4. Select the region that the instance to be bound is located.

   A global EIP can be bound to an instance in any region.

5. Select the type of the instance to be bound and then select the instance.
6. Select the global internet gateway to be bound.
7. Click OK.
