Overview

AAD supports domain name and IP address access. The differences between the two access modes are as follows:

**Table 1** AAD access modes
Access Mode	Applicable Scenario	Major Differences
Domain name access	If your services use domain names licensed by ICMP, you can connect the domain names to AAD.	Huawei Cloud uses algorithms to select the optimal access point for you and does not provide fixed high-defense IP addresses. If you use this mode, you are advised to purchase an instance that uses domain name access.
IP access	If your services use IP addresses rather than domain names, you can configure forwarding rules to connect your services to AAD.	AAD provides IP port protection and fixed high-defense IP addresses. This type is recommended for users using "Layer 4 Forwarding Rules".

Incorrect configurations during service access may cause protection failures or service interruptions. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
