The EIP using a dedicated BGP IP line reduces the network latency without detouring an international ISP. It allows users in the Chinese mainland to access businesses outside the Chinese mainland faster.
Note:
Currently, only bill-by-IP accounts can use dedicated BGP IP addresses. Bill-by-CVM accounts need to be upgraded before using these IP addresses. For upgrading details, see Checking Account Type. If you need to use a dedicated BGP bandwidth package in the monthly pay-as-you-go billing mode, contact your business manager to apply for activation.
Directions
Step 1: Creating a Dedicated BGP Bandwidth Package
To create an EIP using the dedicated BGP IP line, you should create a dedicated BGP bandwidth package first.
1. Log in to the VPC console and click Bandwidth Package on the left sidebar. 2. At the top of the Bandwidth Package page, select the Hong Kong (China) region and click Create in the upper left corner.
3. In the Create Bandwidth Package dialog box, enter a name, select the Dedicated BGP line type and billing mode, set the bandwidth cap, and click OK.
Step 2: Creating an EIP Using the Dedicated BGP IP line
Create an EIP using the dedicated BGP IP line and add this EIP to the created dedicated BGP bandwidth package.
2. At the top of the Public IP page, select the Hong Kong (China) region. Then click Apply in the upper left corner.
3. In the pop-up Apply for EIP dialog box, configure the following parameters.
|
IP address type | Select dedicated BGP IP. |
Billing mode | Dedicated BGP IP addresses support monthly bandwidth subscription and bandwidth package billing modes. |
Bandwidth package | Select the bandwidth package created in Step 1 from the dropdown list. |
Bandwidth cap | Set the bandwidth cap for the EIP as needed to allocate bandwidth resources reasonably. |
Quantity | Select the number of EIPs to be applied for as needed and ensure that it does not exceed the product quota. For details, see Quota Limits. |
Name | EIP instance name, which is optional. |
Tag | You can add a tag and use it for permission management. |
Step 3: Binding a Cloud Resource
2. In the Operation column to the right of the target EIP instance, select More > Bind.
3. In the pop-up Bind resources window, select the cloud resource to be bound and click OK.
Note:
If a bill-by-IP CVM instance already has a public IP address, it can be bound to the EIP only after the public IP address is released.
The maximum number of EIPs bound depends on the CPU configuration of a CVM instance. For details, see Use Limits. 4. In the pop-up Confirm Binding dialog box, click OK to complete the binding with the cloud resource.
