Configuring Private Network Access to a GeminiDB Redis Instance

Scenarios

You can configure private network for a load balancer to access a GeminiDB Redis instance.

Usage Notes

  • A load balancer address does not support security groups. After instance creation is complete, configure IP address access control. If no whitelist is configured, all IP addresses that can communicate with the VPC can access the instance.
  • Redis Cluster GeminiDB Redis instances do not support this function.

Enabling or Disabling Private Network Access for a Load Balancer

  1. Log in to the GeminiDB console.
  2. On the Instances page, click the target instance.
  3. In the Connection Information area, click next to Access Control.

  4. Select Blacklist or Whitelist and specify IP addresses in that list.

    Figure 2 Configuring access control

    • Blacklist: The blacklist and whitelist cannot be configured at the same time. If you switch between lists, your previously entered settings will be lost. IP addresses in the blacklist cannot be accessed. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
    • Whitelist: The blocklist and allowlist cannot be configured at the same time. If you switch between lists, your previously entered settings will be lost. Only IP addresses in the whitelist are allowed to access the system. Exercise caution when performing this operation.

  1. Log in to the GeminiDB console.
  2. On the Instances page, click the target instance.
  3. In the Connection Information area, click next to Access Control. In the displayed dialog box, click Yes.
