    Parameter

    Description

    Domain Name

    Protected domain name or IP address.

    Protection

    How your WAF instance is deployed for your website. Only Dedicated mode is available.

    Server IP/Port

    Public IP address of the website server accessed by the client and the service port used by WAF to forward client requests to the server.

    Last 3 Days

    Protection status of the domain name over the past three days.

    Mode

    WAF mode of the protected domain name. You can click to select a protection mode:

    • Enabled: WAF is enabled.
    • Suspended: WAF is disabled. If a large number of normal requests are blocked, for example, status code 418 is frequently returned, then you can switch the mode to Suspended. In this mode, your website is not protected because WAF only forwards requests. It does not scan for attacks. This mode is risky. You are advised to use the global protection whitelist rules to reduce false alarms.

    For details, see Switching WAF Working Mode.

    Policy

    Number of types of WAF protection enabled for the domain name. You can click a number to go to the rule configuration page.

    Access Progress

    The progress of connecting your website to WAF or the website access status.

  6. In the Domain Name column, click the domain name of the website to go to the basic information page.
  7. View the basic information about the domain name of the protected website.

    To modify a parameter, locate the row that contains the target parameter and click the edit icon.
