Cloud Monitor Practices

There are two typical practices for using Cloud Monitor:

1. Real-time data monitoring to realize sudden increase or decrease of bandwidth or attack. It is mostly used for operational monitor.
2. Periodic data monitors aggregated traffic/bandwidth of a period. It is mostly used for billing monitor.

Create New Alert Rules

1. Create operational alert rules

You can create operational alerts for Bandwidth, Request, Back-to-Origin Bandwidth, CC Attack QPS, WAF Attack Requests, WAF Attack Requests Rate, Bot Attack Requests, Bot Attack Requests Rate.

Below is an example of a real-time monitor on Bandwidth. In this example, we monitor consolidated traffic of all domains under Dynamic Web Acceleration service. If the bandwidth of target domains is more than 100Mbps, the system will send notification alert email to contact group 123 and contact person *laine.

2. Create billing alert rules

You can create billing alert rules on Total traffic, 95% bandwidth, Daily Ave.Traffic.

Below is an example of a periodic monitor on 95% bandwidth. In this example, we monitor 95% bandwidth of all domains under Dynamic Web Acceleration service. If the 95% bandwidth value of target domains is between 100-200Mbps in successive 2 hours, the system sends notification alert email to contact group 123 every 5 mins until the alert cancelled.
