Terminology Explanation

CNAME Protection Domain

After adding a domain, the CNAME domain assigned to the customer by UWAF, the top-level domain is uewaf.com, and the subdomain is a random 8-character string.

Protection IP

The IP that the CNAME protection domain assigned to the domain by UWAF resolves directly without the business fallback enabled, by default, the same top-level domain and its subdomains share one IP.

Dedicated IP

A protection IP is allocated separately for a domain. Compared to domains with a shared protection IP, this domain will be unaffected by DDoS attacks on the domains with a shared protection IP, and it has better concurrent performance.
