Binding Private Network CLB to EIP

Last updated: 2024-01-04 09:44:16
    Private network CLB is used to distribute requests from Tencent Cloud's private network. It doesn't have a public IP and cannot communicate with the public network. If you need to use a private network CLB instance and want it to communicate with the public network, you can bind it to an EIP for public network access.
    Note:
    The feature of binding an EIP to a private network CLB instance is in beta testing. To try it out, please submit a ticket.

    Use Limits

    Region limits
    Private network CLB instances are unavailable in Ji'nan, Fuzhou, Shijiazhuang, Wuhan, and Changsha regions. Therefore, this feature is not supported in these regions.
    Product attribute limits
    This feature is supported only for bill-by-IP accounts but not bill-by-CVM accounts.
    This feature is supported only for CLB instances but not classic CLB instances.
    This feature is supported only for private network CLB instances in VPCs but not in the classic network.
    Feature limits
    Currently, private network CLB instances do not support port ranges.
    A private network CLB instance can be bound to only an EIP that is in the same region as the CLB instance and not bound to other resources.
    Each private network CLB instance can be bound to only one EIP.
    After a private network CLB instance is bound to an EIP, its features will be similar to those of a public network CLB instance, but public network CLB cannot be split into private network CLB and EIP.
    Security group limits
    After a private network CLB instance is bound to an EIP, the security group of the instance takes effect for traffic from the instance but not from the EIP.
    After a private network CLB instance is bound to an EIP and the "Allow by Default" feature is enabled in the security group of a backend CVM instance, the security group allows traffic from both the EIP and the CLB instance by default. That is, the security group does not take effect for both types of traffic. Therefore, we recommend not enabling the “Allow by Default” feature.
