Adding Instances to a Global Connection Bandwidth

Scenarios

You can bind a global connection bandwidth to a global EIP or a cloud connection.

Notes and Constraints

• Instances that a global connection bandwidth is to be bound to must be from the same region as the bandwidth.
• A global connection bandwidth can only be bound to instances of the same type. If you want to add other type of instances to a global connection bandwidth with instances bound, you need to remove the bound instances first.
  • Global EIPs: You can add or remove global EIPs in batches.
  • Cloud connections: You can bind one global connection bandwidth to or unbind it from one cloud connection at a time.
