Step 3: Bind an EIP
Scenarios
By default, a GaussDB(openGauss) DB instance without an EIP bound to it is not accessible over the public network. You can bind an EIP to a GaussDB(openGauss) DB instance for public access and can unbind the EIP from it when necessary.
Precautions
- Before accessing the DB instance, you need to add an individual IP address or IP address range to the inbound rule. For details, see Step 3: Configure Security Group Rules.
Binding an EIP
- Log in to the management console.
- Click
in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.
- Click Service List. Under Database, click GaussDB.
- In the navigation pane on the left, choose GaussDB(openGauss) > Instance Management.
- On the Instance Management page, click the target DB instance.
- In the Connection Information area, click Bind EIP.
- In the displayed dialog box, all unbound EIPs are listed. Select the EIP to be bound and click OK. If no available EIPs are displayed, click View EIP and obtain an EIP.
- In the Connection Information area, view the bound IP address.
To unbind the EIP from the DB instance, see Unbinding an EIP.
